		<title>Memories and More</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Again, time has flown by and I&#8217;ve been remiss in writing! Things have been crazy around here, as I&#8217;d been packaging and shipping off calendars, as well as preparing prints and notecards for the Holiday Marketplace, which was held this past weekend here in Fairbanks. The Holiday Marketplace is a fabulous venue for &#8220;one-stop-shopping&#8221; for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Close Enounters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Gratitude first, before I talk about close encounters:
November 11th - With much Gratitude to our Veterans!
From the time America won its independence, brave souls have stood to protect the freedom we hold dear. Thank you - all of you - for your dedication and sacrifice for this great nation.
With personal gratitude to my father (USAF [...]]]></description>

		<title>Continued Gratitude</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been busy working on shipping calendars, and I think I&#8217;m down to the final shipment - which will go out on Wednesday (since Tuesday is Veterans Day and the Post Office is closed). Tomorrow I will package up what&#8217;s left, and also gather the prints I will be taking to The Stash for [...]]]></description>

		<title>History Made</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I started this journal more than five years ago, my goal was to share my journey to Alaska, and my life in Alaska - via my words and photographs - with the rest of the world. I also decided that there would be some topics that I would not write about - subject matter [...]]]></description>

		<title>Busy, Busy!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The past week or so has been so busy for me. I&#8217;ve had to write myself lists, and then go down them -checking off items as I complete them. I feel like I&#8217;m suffering from some sort of Attention Deficit Disorder (I refuse to blame it on &#8220;old age&#8221;!) because I get started on a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Calendar - Thank You!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am humbled by the overwhelming response I have received for my Alaska Calendar. I had no idea it would be so enthusiastically received by so many of you. There are no words to adequately express my sincere appreciation and gratitude.
I will be placing the order tomorrow morning, so today is the cut-off for reserving [...]]]></description>

		<title>Alaska Calendar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the past few years, I have been asked by readers of my journal if I had a calendar available for purchase.  Up until now, I never took the time to put one together, as the research I had done in regards to printing a calendar always left me feeling less than enthusiastic.  It seems [...]]]></description>

		<title>Winter Wonderland?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I guess the term &#8220;wonderland&#8221; depends on who you&#8217;re speaking to. Winter? Yes. Wonderland? The jury&#8217;s still out on that one.  I happen to think the fresh snow is beautiful, and I usually welcome the onset of winter with a little bit of excitement.  I love the pureness that the snow lends to the landscape.

		<title>Thank you, Chinook Wind!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The past two days have been positively balmy. We&#8217;ve had highs in the 40s, and the snow is melting. Our back deck is totally clear of snow now, and the yard has puddles. It&#8217;s been a welcome change from the morning temps in the teens and frequent snow flurries, but since it&#8217;s still falling below [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Special Birthday, and a Winter Getaway!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;d like to start this journal entry with a shout out to my number two son - Brandon! Today marks 25 years since Brandon made his appearance in this world, and quickly found his way into my heart. Brandon will always be my &#8220;baby&#8221; no matter how many years pass by.
The other day, I was [...]]]></description>
