It has been difficult to sit and write recently as moving can be a very time consuming activity. We are working so much on trying to get the house unpacked and decorated the way that we want, that we have had time for little else.
i spent 2.5 hours the other day urban hiking through anchorage discovering different areas around our house. we have cross-country ski trails that run right past our back door and they lead all over the city.
as always, it is difficult to be away from family, but i think this place will lead to many new and exciting adventures. i will post more as soon as i can. there are many more things to tell!
