ADVERTISEMENTS

So, we are back from Fairbanks and Chena Hot springs. Long trip but a lot of fun too. The first night we stayed in this cabin at Sheep creek lodge (http://www.sheepcreeklodge.com/). It was super cool and you can't beat the $63 price. Saturday we pushed onto Fairbanks. We were told to prepare for the cold. Yet it stayed in the 20's. Above. In fact it rained. We went to Chena Hot springs. Didn't see the northern lights. But G and I had a good soak in the hot springs. Even though Kadee and J weren't allowed in, I

think they had a good time. I must say though that now that I have been once, I doubt I'll go back. Overpriced and bad service. Luckily I know how to entertain myself. For example, G and I blasted the Mini 14. Beautiful. After that it was time to retire to the bunker and drink whiskey and coke.

Today we did the 10 hour drive back in one go. J and Kadee were troopers. Good trip and great to see G of course. Just to change the topic slightly: I would like to take this opportunity to publicly apologize to J. I have been a fool lately. I have allowed my feelings to blind me to what is important in life. Many of you know what I am talking about. I will not say what happened on this trip but I feel like Theoden released by Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings. I have been under a spell lately. Despite it all I love my wife and daughter(s), and I promise to do a better job as a husband and as a father. Together let's enjoy Alaska. And remember how lucky we are.
