We have made It !




We are off the boat and all safe. As you can see we have the 5 star hotel and are glad it is not rocking. Tony has caught my cold and I am not sure how, he was 4 feet away from me in the top bunk in the quarters. The dogs finally went to the bathroom after two days on the boat. We were able to walk them on board every 4-6 hours, but nothing. All 52 dogs on the boat made a run for it in Ketchican. We were all cheering for the poo! All us dog owners were concerned and high fiving after the great poo event. After three days in the kennel, the pouches are very clingy and tired. I am not sure who it was harder on me or them.




We have snow here in Haines and winter has started for us. We went to the store for some lunch supplies...hahaha. Yeah, A gallon of milk was $5.49 and I wanted to share that you can buy tune in 4lb cans for $4.99. I tried to get a photo, but did not have my camera as I did not know I needed to take a photo of a 4lb can of tuna. The fruit & veggies are awful (reminder here, I worked in produce at the Fred G. Meyer's and I took the produce test and passed, so I know bad fruit & veggies) I could make a KILLING on fresh fruit here, if I could get it here.




We are leaving for Tok, AK tomorrow and the caribou are migrating, so we have some road warnings. It is 450 miles of love and family fellowship on the Yukon! Feel free to pray for us on the Yukon as it will be a bumpy ride!


Happy voting to all tomorrow and may the best PERSONS win.


I love you all
