Posting issues

I have been trying to post some pictures from Ed's fishing trip for days and it just won't upload. I thought I would run a test to see if a different one would work....here goes.

Preschool, Middle School & High School

Ahh, the smell of back to school supplies! Pencils, paper, new clothes and backpacks. I all 3 boys going to school this year. I ask....who plans a high schooler, middle schooler and preschooler all on the same day? Not many can probably say that huh? Caden now goes to preschool 2 times a week in the morning, Colton goes to middle school and Devin started at the new high school. All in all, I think everyone had a good first day. No major mishaps. Aren't they 2 cute?

Our Governor for VP?

Holy smokes! Not much work got done in the State of Alaska last Friday. EVERYONE, that I work around at least, talked of nothing else! I have to admit that I am very proud. She is a woman and she is from ALASKA! Say no more!

Several have emailed asking what I think of my Governor. Mind you, my perspective is one of a southeast Alaskan (it is no secret that she favors the northern part of the state). So, my only reservation about her is that she is trying to slowly move the capital from Juneau, even after campaigning otherwise. A move like that is greatly feared down here and would be devastating. Other than that, she is straightforward, ambitious and certainly seems to walk the walk...very no nonsense.

Above is the editorial cartoon that appeared in this Sunday's paper. It is very true. We, in Alaska, were just as shocked as the rest of the world!

May the best man....er....woMAN win!

Raffle Ticket Plea

Here is my plea to all family & friends...I have 2 boys in football this year and that means they have to sell a combined total of 60 of these raffle tickets! There are great prizes this year (airline tickets and WHO doesn't need a chance at those?). My Mom hit is on the nail head when she said that these folks are pimping out our kids...huh?

If you are interested, make a check out to JYFL and send it up our way.

Thanks so much!
