Hey everybody!! Alaska was so ridiculously awesome! Just made it back and am thawing out. We saw a pretty good aurora, took a sweet snowcat tour, hung out in an ice museum/bar. Wow. If you get a chance to visit Chena hot springs, do it. What an amazing place. And how they make it comfy and warm, amazing food, etc so far off the grid is nuts. They use geothermal power to grow all their own produce in greenhouses, they have 2 full time world class ice carvers, crazy stuff. Just blew our minds.

Check out the pipeline! Sean almost froze to death reading the sign on the side of it. still around 40 below.
We found a really amazing brewpub near the Chena hot springs turnoff.
Ps the turnoff is off of the Ice Road Truckers road... we got our doors blown off by some insano trucks.





At Soapy Smith's in downtown Fairbanks. Eating crab sandwiches and clam chowder for breakfast.



We made it to Fairbanks! It's -35f and I just saw somebody toodling around on a bicycle. It's midnight. Hardcore. Thanks to Greg for telling us to plug in the car (engine block heater)!

Hi everybody! Everything's going fine post-chemo, just having some neuropathic pain. Should be much better in a few days. I love Eddie Vedder's ukulele album, beautiful. . .

Happy Sunday! Still in pretty major hibernation mode post- radiation. Getting prepped for chemo tomorrow. We just cracked some crabs for dinner- Yosemite Sam went crazy! Summer is galloping all over the place... Everyone seems stoked! Beautiful sunset tonight.

Holy crap, you guys. I'm posting this from my actual phone!! New phone- my blackberry was driving me crazy. So now I have an iPhone! Things are going fine- the radiation folks thought my side effects might start getting better at the end of this week. Great news- just booked our plane tix up to Fairbanks AK for the end of jan!!

Happy New Year, my wonderful friends. Wahoo!!! I wish for each and every one of you to be happy, healthy, and for your dreams to come true.
Things are going fine on this front- only TWO more radiation treatments to go. Man, I am ready to be done with this! It's crazy with this Varian rapid arc machine, there's no redness or burning of the skin. Sean's taking very good care of me- tonight we had miso soup which felt awesome on my poor esophagus :)
