Every summer our landlords and their family visit Alaska from Vermont and stay in the apartment downstairs from our house. They have a 13 year old son (Zach) and a 7 year old daughter (Sloane). When they come to Alaska, Zach's thing is going to outdoor adventure camps. Sloane's thing is playing with Gus. They are the best of friends. She loves him so much that she finally talked her parents into getting a Golden Retriever. They pick up little eight week old Amelia when they get back home.

Back to Seward
Work took me back to Seward last week. Since it was spring break, both Patrick and Gus got to come! We also brought a friend of ours along who had never had the chance to visit Seward. We had a relaxing couple of days. This is downtown Seward.

I love the quaint downtown and how everything is within walking distance. Other than remote villages and rural areas, Seward is the smallest community in which I work.
Gus and Patrick got to practice some mushing. Gus thought he actually got to ride on the sled instead of pulling it.

We ate at a little Chinese restaurant in Seward where our waiter felt that in addition to serving us, he also needed to entertain us-throughout the entire meal. We watched him dance, do magic tricks, and other tricks with plates. Our favorite part was seeing his origami skills. We left with a bunny, a shirt, a helicopter and a turtle. I think it made Patrick feel like he had gotten a little taste of his former home.

This documented snuggle session took place in Seward, but occurs on a daily basis, regardless of location.

Knives
If you know Patrick, you know that he loves any knives that can be used for camping, hunting, fishing, being a boy, etc. His obsession extends to kitchen knives, as well.

Happy Sunday!

Morning

My morning started out slow. Patrick went to work early and I took my time. So did Gus, obviously.
As I was getting ready for work, something caught my eye outside. I looked out the window and saw a moose. No matter how many moose I see here, I always get excited.


Unfortunately, my camera was at work, so I had to rely on my phone for pics. Just as I was leaving, a baby joined the mama.

After stalking them for long enough, Gus and I loaded up and headed to work. I snapped a pic of the view of the bay driving to work at 10am.
