Good Morning everyone,
Up on a rainy Sat, the warm Alaska summer has been and has left the state.  It was an unusual warm summer here, and we enjoyed the lake to the fullest, with the kids swimming just about every day.  I even ventured out one day for a swim.
So we have been having going away parties for fellow Canadians heading back from their tours, and we have been welcoming the new Canadian's as well.
We are expecting our friend and her DD at the end of the month, so we are excited to spend time with them.
School will start back mid Aug and then hockey is going to start up again.  Boy does time fly.  Aug 1st we will have been here in Alaska, one year.
Well have a great day, we are heading to a good bye party tonight and need to go shopping and make some appies for tonight.

So I can't believe we are going into July, looks like our nice weather has disappeared.  Yesterday we had an amazing Canada Day with Alaska Canadian's and get to celebrate July 4th in a couple of days.  Tonight I heard on the news that our fire ban had been lifted but to use a fire ring.

I just got back from a canoe/boat ride, of course when I take my camera on a eagle hunt I see nothing....=(   oh well can use the exercise....I'm so lacking in this department....=(

Well I will write soon have a great night.... =)
