End of April Update

Well, tomorrow is May 1st. It is amazing how April has flown by so quickly. The snow is SLOWLY melting. We have had highs in the 50's the last couple of weeks. This has helped melt the snow (just not as fast as I would like).

Mike and I have been tending to our little seedlings for our summer garden. The plants are growing and looking very healthy. In fact, we took the time this afternoon to replant them into bigger pots. I can't wait to put them in the ground the first of June!

I have three more weeks of school. The year has gone so fast and it seems impossible that we are at the end of the year. My summer will be busy, as I have three graduate classes I will be taking. It will be a busy summer with homework and papers.

Mike and I do have trip planned for Memorial Day. We are going camping at Denali National Park for 5 days. We also want to take a short trip in June to Chicken, Alaska. There is a bluegrass festival there called Chickenstock that looks to be rather interesting. Finally, we want to end the summer with dipnetting for salmon on the Kenai River and then driving the Glen Allen Highway over to the Richardson and back to Fairbanks (camping along the way).

I hope you are doing well and enjoy the pictures below!
