ANOTHER BUMMER...AND...HANGINGS ON HOLD

Monday ~ February 18, 2008
Yup..another bummer...our friends from AK won't be able to come down this summer...was SOOOO looking forward to seeing them again! Committments...sometimes get in the way of what we WANT!
I've been looking at pc's...for church. The one there is 5 years old and has decided, since connecting to the net last week, that the memory is full and also no room on the hard drive AND the printer is acting up... The Geek Squad guy said he usually recommends an upgrade, BUT since we're still in the stoneage with our technology, we really should upgrade TO A NEW COMPUTER! YEAH, RIGHT! THAT'S not in the budget! So going to try and delete...something... There is one at Best Buy WITH A PRIINTER for less than $500... My thoughts? Why spend a dollar to save a dime with upgrades when a new one is not so much?
Seems the wall hangings are on hold for a couple weeks probably. Our outdoor ministry is going to the fair...the KALS ministry fair on the 1st of March, so, that has to be prepared for...with displays and A BANNER. That's right...I went shopping today for material...now to think of how to do the pattern, BUT I'VE GOT ALMOST TWO WEEKS...right?

Talkeetna purchase

We bought land about 15 miles SW of Talkeetna, Alaska...on e-bay...sight unseen! in 2006. I probably wouldn't recommend doing that for everyone, but we were blessed it was legal...and now have good neighbors in the north, too. In fact, one of our neighbors built a 250 foot road with a turn-around into our place and we could stay on our land part of the summer. Of course, then there was the flood with the washing out of the only good road leading to Malispina Loop, so had to wait to start back to MT for a few days until that was repaired and we could retrieve our cargo trailer, since we had left it on our land while down on the Kenai.

Welcome to the travels of John and Chrysa

We leave on June 6th so are in the process of thinking about getting ready. Actually, I've had stacks here and there all winter, but don't know if that'll save me time or not. I have washed and waxed the fronts of the camper (slide-in with tip-out) and under the overhead so all the bugs we hit can have a spot now. It was fairly crowded before starting...but I always use 'Black streak remover'~ if you haven't tried it, do...it's awesome! I'm going to give getting pictures on here a whirl in the near future...just hoping it's nearer (didn't have problems) than farther (had problems) away.
