Randomness

opps I just posted nothing, got a little to happy with the return key.

anyway I can't believe how nice out it has been. I am so ready for spring, but eventhough I am ready I don't think fairbanks is.....maybe it will be warm by the time I get there....yeah right it was -20 there yesterday...oh well

I have been busy packing and cleaning. Although I am thinking I am getting this packing thing down.....or at least that is what I tell myself.

I am glad it has been nice I got the chance to vacuum out my car and it needed it.
I went up to the hunting shack with my dad this weekend. They got a bunch of snow last week. so that meant shoveling. Here are a few pictures plus some random ones of me and Andrew

Time is up

my six month vacation is almost over:(


but I do have 2 weeks left, so I am going to go visit my sister and then head up to work.

yep I am driving, I decided I just like having the freedom of my car.

so I am leaving for WA on wed and then after spending the weekend with laura and craig I am driving up the Cassiar(sp) highway and then up to fairbanks

so that means that I really need to start getting my stuff ready, but I am slacking, really I shouldn't have much to pack, I left some stuff up there so that should mean I don't have to take as much

I am headed up to the cabin with my dad tomorrow, he isn't sure if the road will be plowed all the way there since it just snowed and they are done logging. If it isn't plowed that just means that we will have to ski in

Lately I have an obsession with jelly beans.......if I buy them I just cant stop eating them, I try to not buy them and i had been doing so well....but today I had to go to wally world and there they were just staring at me and begging to come home with me so I buy them they were .78 so its not like I was spending all my money....but now the whole bag is almost gone. granted it wasn't that big of a bag, but I just cant stop eating them

Answers to comments in last post

Answers.
1. I am pretty sure that they are pigs feet
2. The chickens weren't quite dead yet they moved around
3. I think that most of the food we ate came from markets like this, it is actually much cleaner than it looks, you would think that there would be tons of flies but there isn't..

You just try not to think about it when you eat and make sure that everything that you eat is fully cooked.....not much else you can do since it is the only way to get food

The market

Here are some photos from one of the local markets we visited. I would write about the photos but I think that they speak for themselves.

Although the first to pictures on this post are just random photos from one of the cities we were in

Seriously Slacking

Yes I know I am seriously slacking on posting.

Don't know why I have had plenty of time to post.

I think I have 2 or 3 more posts to write about my trip to Ecuador. I will get there eventually

What else is new?

well I am trying to decide if I should drive, fly or hitchhike my way up to Alaska

I start work again on March 30, yes my 6 month vacation is almost over, yes it is earlier than in the past, but I also get done earlier

My car is making new noise so I am going to get it checked out this thrus, hopefully it is nothing.

Today my nephew is coming over after school so that is always fun

I went for a run outside yesterday, why is running outside so different than running on a treadmill. ok maybe it is the 50 degree temperature difference that makes it feel harder when outside, or that fact that the roads were a little snow covered so it was harder to run, all I know it just seemed a little bit harder.

I also have pictures to post of the house projects that I have been working on. soon I promise
