I took the virtual tour of your house. It looks great. It sounds like school will be an interesting cultural experience for your darling "dotter". Have you seen any moose yet? Ted and Alli started back to high school yesterday and it was 109 degrees when Alli went out to run cross country!! Hey Alaska looks pretty good compared to that. Hope all is well with you all. Love, Jill, Nat, Ted and Alli. Hi Kate and Rick, Wow, I can’t believe you are really in Alaska! I took the virtual tour of your house. It looks great.

Moose encounters! I've always longed to meet a moose. All that lovely water boggles the Arizona mind and makes me green with envy, but I was thinking....maybe now's the time you should invest in long-johns....lotsa long-johns.

On the Russian tact, try vodka until you've moned in. Omega Unk Happy to see that you’re becoming operational in the land of the midnight sun. On the Russian tact, try vodka until you’ve moned in.

Congratulations!You must be so relieved. Sounds like whoever made up the rules about recess is from the same mold as the nuns I had in grade school. Brrr! But what fun to be able to bring snow pants and ride on sleds! Dotter is sure in for an adventure at school. Oooh I kept checking here to see if you got the house.

That is great news. I hope, for the sake of your family, that you get to move in early. I can only imagine how maddening that must be to be all ON TOP OF each other. Ugh! Love the observations about Dotter's new school. I hear moose can be very dangerous, so it would probably be a good idea to find out what to do if you see one! Congratulations on getting the house!
