finally here

well, almost. i rolled into saskatoon on the 9th, after 6 days on the road from inuvik. holy crap, what a long drive. 4015 km or so, if you are curious. poppy diabla the wonderpup was a wonderful travelling companion, but we were both pretty eager to just friggin' get here already.

upon arrival in the city, my sis took me out to check out my new digs. i had about half an hour to wander around my house before she had to be back in the city. how bizarre to finally be in there - though i had seen tons of photos, i had it mapped out differently in my mind, so although everything looked like i expected it would, it was all in the wrong place. still, i heart it more than i even expected to.

the next day i had planned to get out there and start getting settled. instead, we woke up to
the worst blizzard saskatoon has seen in decades.



so, needless to say, it was days before i got out there again, and i needed a 4x4 truck to get into the yard. #1 item on my shopping list is now a 4x4 quad with a blade. sheesh.
