Brrrr and Sarah Palin's Alaska



Brrrr right now it is 6.3 degrees outside and I'm sitting under a blanket watching the finale of Sarah Palin's Alaska.

Love. That. Show.

LOVE IT.


I can't believe people hate it. Who cares what you think about Sarah Palin, anytime you can watch a show about Alaska it is pretty much amazing. I especially am liking it because I think her family is interesting and funny, plus lots of places they go I can be like "BEEN THERE!"

I've probably mentioned this on my blog before but not recently: We went to Alaska on our honeymoon! Very memorable and definitely a place I want to take our kids some day. One experience I hope to never re-live: being followed by 2 grizzly bears while over two miles away from our vehicle.

In 15 days we drove 2500 miles just within the state. I only took 3 showers so it wasn't a normal honeymoon but I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

Can you see Nick? We are hiking near Harp Mountain (our last name).
In my (free) I-pod touch I have a weather app and like to keep an eye on temps in some Alaskan and Montana towns.
Quick temperature check:
Wasilla...10
Fairbanks...9
Bozeman, MT....7
Nome.....27
Talkeetna....13

Tonight Ohio is competing with the best of 'em!!

What an awesome honeymoon! I love SP's Alaska too, and I still think she has some good ideas.. politically and otherwise. Maybe not aLlll of the opinions do I agree with, but i still like her and her fam! -Tammy

That would have been one cool honeymoon!! Literally!! :) Can't stand SP at ALL, like mind numbingly annoying, but I was drawn into the show. It was like a train wreck I just couldn't look away from.

Thanks for the blog article about baby led weaning!! We can't wait to start!!

seriously... it is 27 degrees in Nome. It feels like summer--the kids are all out in shorts right now. So wrong.
