North to Alaska. Specificaly, Cordova.

I forget how much I love Alaska until I return. It’s not just one thing though—there is so much to love. The green. The clean air. The lack of billboards. And of course, see the BFF and her family. The downside is that it takes FOREVER to arrive and two plane changes.

Worth it.

My first day in Cordova

Cathy’s husband bagged a moose on his first “serious” day of hunting. Mmmmm. Tasty. And a lot of work. Luckily, the gutted her out in the field but still. There was the hanging of the carcass, the skinning, the quartering and finally, the wiping down with vinegar. Which doens't sound like a bad job (considering what else had to be done) but is actually somewhat icky.

But it’ll be worth it cause hey, I like moose! Not exactly a vacation-like excursion, but definitely Alaskan-like.
