Hi From Nancy In Alaska

This came in through comments, but wanted to be sure everyone found it, so I'm making a separate post. Carol

Hi, This is Nanc, Bud and Marian's daughter. I'd love to add this. I live in Wrangell, AK. I don't have a camera now for recent photos, but would love to post. I think I must have gotten an email about this, but only saw Carol's website, maybe I clicked on the wrong link? We are back to drizzly days after a good week or so of sunny/mostly sunny weather, so it seems really dreary now, but we need the water or we could run short at our reservoir. My daffodils are just beginning to bloom. Last year they were in full bloom when we had our April Fool's snow. I'm hoping we are done with that for this year. I just got all of my paperwork done and am going to Ketchikan to start classes for working on the ferry this summer, at the end of this month. I will begin then as soon as I get my Z-card which should take 4-6 wks. from now. Son, Cooper is hired too, but hasn't started his paperwork, so don't know if he'll make it in time. He is working at the cannery for now. I am working at the high school/middle school as an aide in the Special Ed dept. for now. I can't say that it is exactly my cup of tea. I originally was thinking of grade school when I applied. My age group preference for working with kids is preschool. The ferry offers good benefits and pay without a college education, is it's appeal. Can't figure how to do pictures here without having my own blog. Maybe Carol can fill me in? Hello to all the family out there. Love, Nanc

Great to see your post Nancy

Carol and I have been discussing having a family reunion this year, we haven't had one since the late 80's (I think). How much interest is there for this?

Hope to hear from the whole family!

Hey Nanc,
Working for the ferry system sounds great. Hope it all works out for you. Better you than me working with all those kids. I don't "do" kids very well.
That and having a bed and breakfast and waiting on people would be the last things in the world I would want to do. Although working with real estate agents is like babysitting sometimes. (Sorry Carol ;o) I should know... I was one at one time!!!
