Alaska - Days 5 & 6

What happened to days 5 and 6 you ask? Just read day 4 again and you will be caught up. Since Davita has to work this week I have not been doing a lot during the day other than catching up on TV and reading. It has been extremely relaxing and enjoyable though. Davita is only working a few hours today so we will be heading south soon to stay at a bed and breakfast in Moose Pass and visit Seward.

I would just like to say that God really has a sense of humor. I came to Alaska expecting lots of winter weather. As previously reported, there is still a lot of the white stuff on the ground; however, it has failed to snow ANY since I've been here. Oh wait, it has snowed...just in Dallas! I think the lack of snow here though is probably a blessing. We have not had any travel problems since the roads are mostly clear. If it did snow that would make seeing the state a lot more difficult. Also, I haven't frozen as I feared I would. I can even go out in the mid 30 degree temps without my coat now. It's crazy how quickly one can adjust to the colder temperatures. Even though I hoped to see a massive snow storm this has worked out quite nicely.
