on the road again


i'm not sure that i'm a bad picture-taker. i mean, being married to a professional photographer does make me pale in comparison. but i do know how to frame a picture and capture a moment.

the thing is, i forget to do it.
i have been carrying a camera around for the last 8 days and have snapped about 10 pictures. in those 8 days, i have traveled as far north and as far west as i ever have--anchorage (at that point, the farthest north and the farthest west) and fairbanks (quickly replacing anchorage as farthest north). and now i am in delta junction, the famed end of the alaska highway.

not far from chris mccandless land...


and all i have to show for it is this google image of delta junction. so here's where i am, map-wise!


i'm doing ethics seminars with high schoolers & 8th-graders this week (that's what you get to do when you have a master of theological studies, i think...). its a blast, actually.


and the cold is subsiding. three cheers for a day in bed with tv on computer.

and look! kelly's alaska country inn has free wireless. who woulda guessed?

I was just thinking about you. When we drove out to your wedding we listened to a super old tape of Bruce Hornsby. I got back and kinda had a hankering for it. I bought it on iTunes and I'm listening to it now. Delta Junction, huh? Let me know if you meet Ann Hassen.
