buh bye summer

Summer has officially left us here in Anchorage.Its rainy wet and cold.The leaves have changed and we are getting frost on the ground.Soon we will have snow.I know what i have to look forward to this year..the negative temps,ice,snow.This year shouldn't be as bad as last year when we had just moved here...i had never seen,touched or even wanted to be around snow..what Floridian who has never ventured north during winter has?We are below 12 hours of daylight i think its 11 and some minutes.The moose are coming down off the mountain as well getting ready for winter. The only thing i dread is going out in cold weather....okay that and the loss of daylight..it really stinks only having 3 hours of daylight. Will is leaving for a months TDY as well but thats easily dealt with...just something you have to deal with when your military.It could be worse he could be gone for a year.Oh i thought of something else that stinks..driving a huge dodge ram when your 5'2 and the truck being lifted..trying to get into the truck with ice on the step bars.Oye.

This years misson..to make the best snowman and snow angels possible! Oh and be jealous of the mild winter florida has.(i used to think the 30s were cold...now i go out without a jacket in the 30s)
