we drove the alcan, in the dead of winter,
and we survived to tell about it.
but let me tell you, it really sucked.
it was beautiful driving through the mountains.
and i have never been so overjoyed to see a city in that frozen wasteland we call the yukon.
it was also neat to see that the more south we drove,
the more sunlight the place received. awesome.
and then there was the time the ditch sucked us in. oops.
and the time that mikie was even more extra awesome for driving through a four hour blizzard.
or how about the time some guy told us there wasn't another gas station for miles, so we had to pay $35 for a half tank of gas... only to drive half an hour down the road and see a brightly lit gas station.
or the time that it was pitch black at four pm.
but here we are in good ol' rexy.
where the shelves of walmart have been cleaned off, where d.i. has nothing in it, the girls dress weird, and tractors drive down the street.
we have finally started to move into our own apartment.
(we've been to bed, bath, and beyond so many times it's embarrassing.)
it is seriously the best thing to decorate your very own apartment.
oh, we saw megamind in the dollar theater.
it is seriously hilarious. we definitely recommend it.
alaskan mountains are the best!
around 10:30 or 11 in the morning... blah.
oops.
