April 29 3:51 PM
April 30 1:12 PM
April 30 2:32 PM
May 1 10:21 AM

One of my favorite Deadliest Catch captains, Phil Harris, died yesterday from a stroke he suffered last month. I'm shocked and sad. Poor Phil..*sniff ( Read more... )

The Nenana Ice Classic tickets are on sale now! (When you guess the exact time the Tanana River at Nenana will break up enough to trip the clock connected to a tripod) This winter's been warmer than normal so maybe it'll break up sooner. Fuuun haha ( Read more... )

Yesterday like 4 of them decided to smack into the windows at once. One hung UPSIDE DOWN from the tree in shock! Another just sat on the ground in shock..I tried to pick it up (they're so soft and delicate!) but it flew away

Today I'm gonna get tickets for the Nenana Ice Classic. You guess at what day and time the ice on the Tanana River at Nenana will break (they put a tripod connected to a clock on the ice and when the tripod moves far enough it'll stop the clock). Oooh exciting haha

I'm getting more highlights later too..and I have to pack still haha
