Archive for the ‘FAIRBANKS!!’ Category

So, I take Judah to alot of playgroups. Homer is a nice little town and rates highly in the ‘fun activities for babies’ criteria…I hear that Bethel is really lacking playgroups (but I actually have friends there) and while Fairbanks has it’s own share of baby oriented events (and friends), I would have to, you [...]

After months and years of self righteous determination to avoid “college” and thus convention, I have collapsed under the societal compulsion to pursue “higher education”. I hope it will be awakening for my occasionally under-stimulated mind. I mean, I could take more individual responsibility for providing myself with education and intellectual stimulation instead of casting [...]

Upon the FairBanks

‘Home’ has taken on different meanings for me over the years. I suppose that I so strongly identify with Fairbanks as home because I have spent the majority of my life there. In the same house.

Summer fun. I feel like there is always so much to do during summer…and time goes by so quickly (and summer only lasts for like, two months anyway) that before you know it, the snow is falling and unachieved summer plans are sabotaged.

Thankfully, the summer is delightful [...]

Exploitation

That is probably a stronger word than is necessary, but after perusing the Alaska Airlines website in search of a round trip ticket from Fairbanks to Homer…that is how I feel. Exploited. $479.00…how is that legitimate, I wonder, especially in light of the fact that I also discovered a round trip ticket from Anchorage to New [...]

It was 70 degrees in Kenai today. We had a very successful trip; Judah slept for most of the driving part, and we scouted out the most opportune locations for eating, playing and completing our shopping. None of the three of us had ever spent much time in Kenai before. I have been fishing there [...]
