The State of ...Things

I am headed off on another tour tomorrow after 3 days off here in Anchorage. This time I was lucky enough to spend time with a friend from last years time here, so the time passed almost too quickly. JM is spend her week off of the cruise ship here in Anchorage so we explored the town, took a little adventure and had a pajama day in July. We made our way through Anchorage shopping, getting pedicures, sipping a drink or two and eating a nice dinner. The following day we took the Cruise Train to Seward to to check it out. The trip was beautiful, however we had a delay on the tracks, kids playing, so we arrived 3 hours late. The departing cruise ship had to be held up for the passengers on the train. Yesterday, though we had great intentions, we ended up lazing the day away, going so far as getting Chinese food delivered, so we didn't have to even cook. Today, I was back to work and tomorrow off to Denali again. I am excited about this tour, I am partnered with one of my favorite people up here. A great way to start off the home stretch, I only have 5 tours left. That does mean I am looking towards the fall and working in Napa Valley, throwing a baby shower, seeing all of my nieces and nephews, watching some football and getting geared up for the big trip to Europe.

Here are some photos from the train trip to Seward:
