Welcome to my new — well, not-so-new — blog

I have this new blog address that ditches the “wordpress” which was part of a birthday gift from my techie hunny. So, over the next little while, I’ll be changing the theme, cleaning it up, and fixing little bugs. So, if you notice anything glaring, please let me know.
My first job will be to add my links back to my blogroll.

Hippo birdie to you! Consider yourself blogrolled. I was watching a documentary last night on truckies who service the mines in Canada’s northwest territories “IceRoad Truckers” and I thought of you for some reason!

Ooooooh, aren’t you the lucky girl – my husband won’t even read my blog, let alone get me my own URL. Still, at least that means that I can say what I like about him without him ever knowing!
Anyway, I have changed my link to your blog – enjoy your new address.

Well for a Yukon Chatterbug you’re very quiet!

Thanks folks. I’ve been super super busy lately. My brother drove from Ontario to the Yukon with his wife and three kids. So the house is full of people, energy, and food, of course. We met them up at Liard Hotsprings and camped there for three days. It’s the first time I can say I drove 7 hours just to go camping for a few days. Anyway, the computer hasn’t been turned on much since their visit. They’re gone to see Skagway, Alaska today (2 hour drive), so I’m trying to catch up a little, but I will be quiet for the next little while.

Baino, thanks for thinking of me. There are some ice roads here, though not the ones you’re thinking of. Ours are to get across rivers that connect northern communities (for the most part). The “Ice Road Truckers” are a brave bunch, indeed. I saw a documentary about them too — might be the same one. It’s interesting how they have to drive very slowly, especially when they get off the ice because of a wave effect under the ice created by the weight and momentum. My uncle’s nephew who does this had a few tales to tell over a couple of beers last time I visited.
DBM & Moon: There are advantages to everything I guess. lol It was only one of many surprises that day.
