So far, So good!

Well, I have been in Alaska for over a week now, and what can I say? I am completely in love. What a state. I never thought I would visit this place, let alone, live in it!

The weather has been gorgeous; 70's everyday with the sun shining! Pearl and I have been hiking the costal trail--she loves it. She always finds a dandelion patch to gorge herself on--she thinks she hit the jackpot!

I am still waiting for her to see a moose; as exciting as I am to see her see one, I know she is going to bark like crazy at it, and well, you can imagine what might go down.

Tomorrow I start my first day of work! Bring it on. It is about time. I am excited to meet everyone and to get a paycheck!

Going to bed is so hard--the sun shines all day, so I have so much added energy. I think it will be awhile to get used to it, but it is really neat to be in a place like this. Everyone is out all the time. I'm thinking about going to Seward this weekend, looks beautiful! We will see how the week goes.

Well, I hope this takes off like Julie and Julia and I eventually get my own movie. Maybe I will start making salmon recipes that sweep the nation--you never know! Or I will just wait to be on the Real Housewives of Anchorage (guest spot, not an actual wife--no worries everyone!)

Go Hawks!!
