Paradise

Another beautiful day in paradise!  Teri worked her last day at Fred Meyers yesterday.  She’ll be gone so long that they’ll have to terminate her now then rehire her if she wants to work when we come back.  They get a good deal getting someone experienced to process the enormous amount of Fish & Game licenses that they have in the summer.  I think she only does it for the employee discount. We’ll see how bored she is next summer.  John and Mary (our good friends in Kasilof) are still actively trying to sell their house.  If they sell and are gone next summer, Teri will lose a major bud and might have to take up fishing if she doesn’t go back to work.  I have no such problem filling my day.

We are at 11 days and a wake up.  Spent today packing up things that will just get in Frank's (our house sitter) way.  The garage will be packed with the Subaru and a ton of boxes, leaving room for Franks car and a little standing room.  Our ford will spend this winter outside under a brown tarp.  Blue is out of style.

It is amazing the amount of “stuff” we have.  George Carlin would be proud.  We pack and cull and reorganize, but still don’t seem to take very much to the dump or give away.  I recaulked the kitchen sink after dinner.  That’s the last of the house projects for this year.  Just one last lawn mowing next week and then put up the mower for the winter.  Tomorrow should be another beautiful day.
