Change in the Freeze



Gradually, the light stays longer in Alaska. Everyone instinctively feels it. Fur Ronde is coming and I may even run the mini marathon Downtown in a crazy outfit. When I first visited, I couldn't quite understand why people would run the streets in costume, but now after one and a half winters, I get it. I have a tough time believing it's been since November of 2005 that my fascination with Alaska began. Many things have changed. Although I will continue here with all that I've started, I have accomplished my goals. It's going to be a tough year, but I'm ready because all my years have been tough in one way or another. The economy is tanking, the President is bravely standing up and I love him.
