Realized that I am leaving in two weeks.
Wondering how I will say goodbye.

I’m just laying around, sleeping and staring.

Didn’t know we had such creepy spidies in AK.
Hopefully I encounter no spidies in Brazil. Not likely.
Sunday was beautiful and sunny!

I’d say it went swimmingly.

I love summers in Homer, Alaska. And I love playing with my darling nieces.
I’ve had many most beautiful beach evenings lately. Me and Cody boy go down there after cleaning boats. Boat cleaning has been slow, like two boats a night. So I’ve got lots of beach time with my ukulele and dear ol’ doggy. It was so so beautifully starry one night and I saw two shooting stars and made lovely wishes! How magical.
I cleaned my sweet ride yesterday. I lovey love Penelope Q. Subaru. Holly dyed my hair dark dark brown the other day. Love it. And I’ve been sending out lots of mail lately. And went to lunch with a captain, waiting for my camera to come, working on visa paperwork and enjoying summer very muchly.
