Photos and stufff....

Ok, just photos... with more to come...

I am working on organizing them. Most of them need some dire editing, but at the same time I like them raw. Most of them were taken through my windshield so it adds a little flavor.

They are posted on my flikr site, with a link on the right side of this here bloggadoo's layout.

Peace!

No Sarah Palin sightings yet- I will let y'all know when I get to witness the great stupidity in person.

Anchorage

Wet, light, and cold.... so far :)

The apartments are really nice, and all of my co-workers are cool. My pups are happy just to be out of the truck, but despite that- it was an awesome trip. I have many, many, many pictures to post on flikr.

Everyone did great on the drive. It was my first time going to another country, and I am glad the transition went smoothly, hehe. We spent about an hour in Canadian customs with our trailer being midly searched (they just opened the back looked in, then went through my purse and stuff) and about two minutes in US customs. I was glad to be back on our soil. We didn't even have to get out of our truck, lol...

"Do your dogs have their shots?" Asks the older US border patrol gentleman through the window.

"Yes, would you like to see their papers?"

::pause:: "Nah.... I believe you. Have a safe trip, oh and you might wanna sign your passport there Virginia...."

We laughed and drove off. That easy. I think it's a requirement to not have a sense of humor if you work in Canadian customs. Granted, I have never been through any other customs so maybe it's just how all Americans are treated?

Anyhoo... I have the internet now so I can once again chat online, send pictures, and all that wonderful goodiness. Sorry it's been a couple months since I have been connected to some of you. I miss everyone, and I think about you guys all the time.

To those of you who are sticking it out, and riding through my virtual nonexistence- THANK YOU!!!

Until we meet again,
Virginia

Washington

We made it to Washington... not quite to Canada yet.

It's been a super fun trip so far :) Of course! I've met assorted Deason family members, and have bonded with our new puppy Jubjub. Who says long road trips can't be super-oober fun?

It's time to watch Stardust, then get some sleep. Night all....

I will write again in Alaska (seeing as I probably won't have internet on the awesomeness that is the Alaska highway)... Many many pictures to come on flikr and stuff.

Thanks for tuning in, sorry for the random-lots-of-time-in-between-posts.

Adventure...

Being without internet certainly has its advantages in daily activities, yet once I hop back online for a limited amount of time I feel so rushed, and like I can't connect the way I am supposed to. Hehe.


I feel as though my dearest friends have been left out, seeing as I hate talking on the phone and the best ways to communicate with me are: in person, text, or email.


Rrrrright.


So, Matt, Vinciepup, and I are going to Anchorage, Alaska for the summer to work (and experience). I am so freakin' excited. The trip up and down itself is going to be of epic proportions.

Needless to say- it's going to be awesome.

If anyone of you has ever wanted to visit Alaska now you have an excuse (and a couch to crash on).

Miss you guys.
I'm outty.

nnointernetty

Not having the internet DEFINITELY wears on me.


How sad is that? My apologies to those who wish to hear tidbittles on interesting things now and again... and to those who do not wish to hear these things, why are you still reading my blog?

::high five::
