12-3-11 I GOT MY OWN CHRISTMAS TREE!! I cut it down myself, hauled it out of the woods, and decorated it! I got some friendly help from my village friends though! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
12-2-11 So when it snows close to 3 feet and then warms up on your toasty roof the snow falls off onto your “front yard” This is the 6 feet of snow that is now piled directly outside my apartment…
11-27-11 Well folks I discovered what happens when it is negative 24 degrees outside. The sun sets at about 3:00 pm here and there are always gorgeous sunsets. I was so tired of being cooped up in the house all weekend that I made Patrick take me on a walk around his neighborhood which solidified his mother’s opinion of me as absolutely insane. But who can blame me? I thrive on activity! On the downside your eyelashes freeze solid at that temperature…. but don’t break off! Sign me up for mythbusters!

11-25-11 Chena Hot Springs in North Pole AK! 100 degree natural pools in minus 30 degree weather… not my favorite, but a really neat experience. Not to mention romantic!
11-20-11 I live in a rainforest! 3 feet in two weeks! How gorgeous and lucky am I?
