I'm back in Sweden after a short jaunt in Oslo, Norway. Windy and grey here. Good tea drinking weather. Today...shopping for more loose leaf tea to bring home and perhaps some sushi for lunch. Have a nice day!

Hello all...
For those keeping track, right now I am somewhere off the coast of British Columbia, who knows exactly where. We passed Nanaimo last night before I went to bed, so that kind of gives you an idea.
The ferry is quiet, not many passengers, but there is a gaggle of very dysfunctional southerners in the seat next to me... they talk loudly, spray perfume, teach their young child to say naughty things then laugh when he tells passing women (and also trash cans) that he likes their big "butt" (*self censored*)... They annoy me very much, but I refuse to give up my space because it is a great space, with an outlet and a window. I do, however, hope to god that they get eaten by bears or in the very least get stung by devils club all over, especially in sensitive parts.

Theres a link in her profile on CD. I just got back from a all day trip today on the river. Drove up to Kwethluk, Akiachak, and a trip downriver to Napakiak. I'm working on uploading now. I'll post them on recent Ak photos.

We went to Huskvarna (the actual town) and saw the factory where chainsaws and stoves and sewingmachines etc are made. The recent snowstorm made for some bad accidents etc and now it's turned to rain. Heading home in the morning.

Alls quiet on the home front, though there may be a storm brewing in another thread, starting to like like it may rain cats....

Rance, huski makes stoves? hope your having fun and you expectations of your trip are being fullfilled.

That's not a brewing storm, that's a full out war! Metla, remember- she's a lower 48er, living in fake Alaska. You must set the example! Be the adult! Grin and bear it! Smack her and run away before she tells!
All advice from my parents. Well, exceptin' that last part, that was 100% me.
Well, the horn just honked, scaring the beejeebes out of me... "Departing Petersburg"...
"Next stop, Auke Bay."
Drum roll, please?

(funny side story- the first time I typed that it came out "drunk roll" )
