Winter Life...

Well the days are definitely getting shorter, dawn comes up around 11 am and sunset is around 4:30 pm. The days are short and the cold is really setting in. I fell in love with a little puppy a few weeks ago and no one seemed to want it. I talked to the "owner" and they wanted $80 for it. They wanted the money even though they never watched it or took care of it. I tried to take care of him but I had to give him back nightly. Ethan was in LOVE with him.

Well a few days after we fell in love with the puppy, the owners decided to let it run free again and it got trapped in an abandoned building. It ended up freezing to death. We were all very sad when we heard. Living out here, animals simply do not have the same value as they do in the Lower 48.

On a lighter note, one night Ethan was watching Glen measuring his body fat for his workouts. Ethan grabbed the calipers as soon as Glen put them down and tried to take his own body fat measurement. It was too cute to not take a picture!

I will keep blogging my Alaska adventures. Until next time...
