First post, but I have been here for a week.

Since everyone has been bugging me about it, I have finally gotten my blog up. I left Oregon and arrived in Seattle at about 12:20, but I had to run to the next flight, which was all for naught because after I got my new seat (they had given my old seat away to someone) and boarded the flight, we had to go back to the airport. There was smoke in the cabin and the air conditioning wasn't working. After a couple of minutes running around, I finally got a new flight time, which was 3:30. I had to make some calls and tell the people that were picking me up that I was going to be late, and after that I got a fruit smoothie with the 8 dollar lunch voucher given to me by the nice guy that booked me the next flight to Anchorage. The flight boarded at 3:00, but it took us another hour to leave the airport due to the fact that a light bulb had to be changed and some paperwork signed before we could get airborne. I finally arrived in Alaska around 7 or so, and after another late person arrived from Texas, we got on the road. It took us 4 hours of driving to get to the lodge, and we arrived at 2 in the morning. The drive there was somewhat eventful. We did see 3 moose, and the sun never set completely.
