  • Kings of Independence!

    This weekend we were going to start a tradition by going camping for the second year in a row at Sunshine Cove.

    However, it was windy and nasty out!  Winds of 20 knots, 4 ft. seas.  So, yeah, I was ok to NOT go camping.  BUT, Coupon did some morning fishing while I was in the visitor's center kiosk and got his daily limit of King Salmon after I brought him some extra bait.  I got the best compliment ever - more than once!

    Right there in front of me he told a guy who was hosing himself off at the dock "You know you have a good girlfriend when she'll bring you extra bait!" and then later posted on Facebook "You know you have a keeper of a girlfriend when she brings you more bait after you run out....one last herring = the biggest fish of the day!"  I know you're thinking how that is a big deal?  Well, herring STINKS!  Haha!

    Anyway, here are pictures from yesterday.  Sorry I couldn't figure out how to rotate pictures on Xanga.
       

    And since we didn't get to go out camping, Coupon took me out on a date for a "consolation."  We went to the Twisted Fish which is owned by some year-round restaurants, but it isn't open year-round anymore.  I had a fabulous crab-prawn angel hair pasta and Nick had a smoked salmon pizza.  We tried to get crepes for dessert but the crepe stand was closed.  Boo!  I'm so into these delicious crepes!  But we went to Frozen Yogurt instead -- that's our usual date night dessert spot. :)

    Today, in less than an hour I'll meet Coupon out at the hatchery and go out with me for king salmon.

  • sorry, I'm trying to find someone to solve my puzzle, and i stumbled on your site by typing in "math" in the search bar.  Can you solve this?

    Can you solve my puzzle? I'm trying to find someone who gets it fast. Draw figure on a sheet of paper. The diagram is in my photos. http://colorsofthenight.xanga.com/photos/81579277563394/

    Directions

    write the numbers and signs out: 3,5,8,3,5,7,2,5 -,-,+,-,+,-

    In the small bubbles go the signs. In the large bubbles numbers.

    The arrows are hints as to which way the equations go. For example 1+2 = 3 and an arrow would be going to the right. The number not under the arrow head and tail is the sum of the two numbers under the tail.

    Complete the figure so that the numbers and signs are all in the correct place

  • So....someday I'm going to come visit you and just eat awesome fresh seafood and see how pretty Alaska is.
