Sitka Friday

Hello to you all and happy Friday! Congratulations you have made it to the end of another week.

Scott had the day off since he put in four tens this week and he brought home the hospital’s loan out car. We were very excited to get to use a car on the island for the first time and set out to see the furthest away places.



We headed up to the North end of the island to see the swans at the bird estuary. They were a lot bigger than I expected and of course flocked towards us when we got out of the car. Not gunna lie, I was a little intimidated. Then we walked around the board walk to check out the views. It was really peaceful and a little drizzley. The fog set in more quickly than we expected but we still made it all the way around and back before it was totally dark.











Pretty sure this was
was a past bear den



Scott was really in awe of how massive so many of the trees get around here. I have fallen in love with all of the lush green. Even when it snows everything is still so alive.







Many people have asked me what I have been doing all day while Scott has been at work (besides taking up photography and almost killing myself running in the snow). Well, I’ve been working too, just a different kind of work. I have been diligently plugging away on the computer trying to finish my first novel. I’m currently about two thirds of the way finished and absolutely love the story. I’m writing it for my own enjoyment, both in the process of writing and for the story.

Tonight we’re having dinner with friends and I have a dozen potatoes to bake… surely even I can handle that, right? And next weekend we will be taking a little trip :) More details to come later.

Enjoy your weekends!

All our love,
