If you want something done...


For weeks now Katie has been saying she was going to update this thing, but has neglected to do so. So Ill do it. We have been doing some hiking at Angel Rock Falls, attended the Midnight Sun baseball game, and still have the intention of making the drive to the arctic circle this weekend. The hike was a nice short 4 miler with amazing views. Katie packed a couple bagged lunches and we at lunch on one of the rocks near the peak. The baseball game was a lot of fun. The GoldPanners starting pitcher also started a previous Midnight Sun game...in 1967! Bill "Spaceman" Lee pitched for the Goldpanners in '67 and '68, the Boston Red Sox from '70-'79, and made a playoff start for the Expos in 1981. He pitched 6 solid innings, striking out 5 (including the first batter he faced), and got the win. I think there are plans to make to make the trip to the circle on Saturday. This will be our last weekend for awhile. I leave next week for the deserts of California, from which I get to come home from! Katie will be home in a few weeks and neither one of us can wait. Its been a long time.
