Final preparations for Alaska 4.4.09

We’ve had a super busy two weeks! I can’t believe two weeks has flown by. We have had errands to run each and every day. In addition to running all over the county for boat parts, van parts, & visiting friends! We have nothing ‘left’ in Ventura but friends & acquaintances but we still consider it ‘home’. And Sue & Dennis have allowed us to have a ‘home away from home’ and we’re super appreciative!!

We’re all ready (or we hope we are!). We purchased our ‘uniforms’ we’re required to wear – khaki pants, blue button up shirts, & a leather jacket, purchased all of our boat parts we will need for next season in Mexico, waxed the van, and everything we should need in Alaska. Whew! It was a lot of work. Throw in seeing a lot of friends and spending time with Sue & Dennis and it was a full week. We’re bummed to go, we hate to leave. And we’re both excited & nervous to go to Alaska. It’s something new & exciting and NEW! Haha… We hope to have lots of cool stories & pictures for you in the upcoming months.

More to follow!
