| Greetings From Dawson |
Day 13 And I got CHOCOLATE!Hey all, today I have something exciting to report!!! Yesterday afternoon a neighbour, Shelley walked her dog down to our cabin. We had a very nice visit and she mentioned that some other neighbours, from upper West Dawson, we taking a helicopter over to this side this morning and then Shelley's partner would be taking the chopper back to town. Well, when she left it was twenty to seven and the grocery store closes at 7pm. So I get Scott on the walkie-talkie, I'm sure I was so excited he didn't know what the hell was going on. Two minutes later he was jetting off to the grocery store to get me chocolate. My internet was down this morning so I had no idea what was going on, except that I saw the chopper just after 9am fly over my place toward the gravel pit, where it lands. When I finally got internet back at almost 2pm Scott said he'd dropped the package off at the door of Fireweed Helicopters before work this morning, there was no one there. Another neighbour, Brent, just dropped by and he was carrying a package!!!! You can imagine just how excited I was. In the package there was lots of chocolate as well as gummy bears and brie (my honey knows me so well). Underneath those was my birthday present...a beautiful new pair of moose-skin moccasains (that I haven't even tried on yet...that's how excited I was to tell you all that I got chocolate!). So I'm once again a happy camper. I hope everyone is doing as well as I am. 03:56 - Wednesday, November 7, 2007 - post comment

Description This is a blog for friends and family and those who always wanted a northern adventure. For those of you who are new here: Lynne and Scott departed Edmonton, AB the summer of 2005 in their camper van with bikes on front, canoe on top, and Beetle pulled behind. Their destination: Dawson City, Yukon. Home of the Klondike Gold Rush. We've been here ever since. Loving every minute of it. Even the long, dark winters where temps reach -40 C and colder. Soon we will embark on a new adventure: we are purchasing some land "off of the grid" and building our dream cabin in the woods where we hope to spend the rest of our days. If you'd like to get up to speed you can visit our defunct blog at greetingsfromdawson.blogspot.com. Thanks for sharing our northern experience.
