Alaskan moments

So long ago it was that I updated everyone...

The trip to Anchorage with the youth group went great. The speaker was awesome, the band was good and had a blast. My favorite was the late night bowling and the praise and worship. And getting to know the kids better was great too. Didn't much sleep though. :0( But that was to be expected.

Work has been going good. It was slow on Saturday so I was just on-call instead of working. Then, Tuesday I just had one patient all day. What a treat! I worked on some phonecalls that I had been needing to make and had a nice day at work. Back here today and it is busy. I am hoping to get to go home early. :0) Who knows if I will get that lucky.

Last night after youth group, we went out to Jon's parents house in Salcha to pick up our regular tires (we need to get the winter tires taken off). Well, it was dark and the northern lights were out great! In his parents yard, there is a big clearing and the lights were in the sky like a big rainbow of green. I love them! Then Jon was using his coyote call to try and round up some coyotes. We didn't get any response at first so we started up the engine to leave but then we saw one move in the woods. So we turned off the car again and he started using the call. The howl didn't ilicit much of a response but he did pups barking and then it was amazing. From the woods came real coyotes barking, like 3 or 4 of them (Jon swears there were 6 of them but how would one know?). Anyway, they were barking and yippin like fiends and it was great! A very alaskan moment.

Hopefully there will be more alaskan moments to come!
