Anchorage

Well, it's 0400 in anchorage and I can positively say it is amazing here. I got here around midnight last night and the sun was just beginning to set, then after a few hours of sleep, stretched out in the airport chairs, I woke up to the sun rising at 0300.... amazing how much sun they have in the summer. The flight up here wasn't that bad at all, the only thing I would change is not being in the middle seat... ;) It was also the first time I had been to Utah and it was beautiful there as well. I got to see just a little bit of it before the sun went down- the mountains there were a sight to see. Ive got a fifty minute flight to cordova in a few hours then being taken to my hotel for the day/night. Tomorrow I start orientation and work! I'll update again tonight after I explore cordova throughout the day.

The day is drawing near...

Well, the day is soon approaching that I will be embarking on one of the greatest adventures of my lifetime. I'm headed to Cordova, Alaska to work at the Prince William Sound Fish Hatchery for the summer. These are the moments I am so thankful for the tight knit family that the CFR allows us to have and the awesome opportunities it opens up to us. I have been running around like crazy these past few months and now I'm trying to move while training everyday with ROTC for our cadet AT. However, I know that come next monday all this hard work will pay off and I will be enjoying every minute of this experience for the next 7 weeks. I hope you enjoy reading my day to day activities throughout the summer and I will post as many pictures as I can. See you in July!
