Idita-Almost-Forget
Posted on May 1, 2009 by davitajo
Waaaayyyyy back in March I volunteered at the Anchorage start of the 2009 Iditarod. It was even more fun than I anticipated…and now I’m going to share a few pictures with you!
I didn’t take many pictures…b/c I WAS WORKING. As part of the “trail guard” I stood at an intersection and shoveled snow, directed foot [...]

A Super Good Idea
Posted on February 6, 2009 by davitajo
One day (a few months ago), my friend Marijke brought up the idea of a winter vacation. After some research it was decided that she is pretty much the smartest person ever and that we must make the appropriate plans post haste.

Thoughts…
Posted on September 10, 2008 by davitajo
It seems to me that over the past few years there have been many more tragic natural disasters. I’m not sure if there actually have been more, or if I’m just more aware of the news as I’m getting older. Does anyone else feel this way?
I’ve started listening to the radio at work. The station [...]

Sunshine, on a Cloudy Day
Posted on June 25, 2008 by davitajo
The title of this post has nothing to do with it’s contents. But…today was a very sunny, yet cloudy day, so I find the words fitting.
I realized something today. Throughout my time here, I’ve always been blessed with something to look forward to. When you make a major life change like this…there are good days [...]
