This is my life on the Denver Glacier just outside of Skagway, Alaska. I am a handler at this dog camp. I have been around dogs my whole life, and have been running sled dogs for about 10 years. I will try to write when I am in town, but that is only day a week. Hope you enjoy my blogs. Later..........

Hello all for my last bog form Alaska. As I write this I am on the Malaspina, a boat on the Marine High Way. I am on my way to Juneau to spend a day then start my travels home. Thursday morning I left on the first flight down to town. It was at 10 am. I spent the day in town packing and getting ready to go. Then this morning, Jenny, one of our ground crew, picked me up at 7:30 am and brought me to the ferry, which I am on now. Yes they have Internet and cell phone service on the ferry going down the inland water way. I was surprised at this also. I am very happy to be going home, yet I do not want this summer to end. I cannot believe I have been away from home for 4 months. It just does not seem right. This last week on the glacier has been… I cannot come up with a word for it. Lets just say I am glad it is over and I am going home. Stressful is a word maybe that would work. We have been starting to get shorted staffed. So it is not so calm. Almost everyone is doing two jobs. Well, I am down now. I will start my traveling home on Saturday afternoon. I fly to Anchorage at 1:30pm and arrive there at 3pm. Then at 8:45pm I fly to Minneapolis at arrive on Sunday at 5am. Mom and Missy are coming to pick me up. We are going to spend the day in the cities doing things and then Missy and I will go to my house. Monday I need to go to college and get things ready. Tuesday I am going to Grandma’s and Grandpa’s and Mom is coming we are going shopping and hanging out. I start school on Monday the 25th. Yeah busy…. Well I am goanna go. Take a nap. I still have 3 more hours on the ferry.
