13 things most people don't know about me...

2008.01.08
1. I'm way more comfortable in the company of dogs than I am with people.

2. Some day I would like to live on a boat!

3. I'd much rather camp in a tent than stay in a 5 star hotel.

4. This is my kinda beach...cold but the only other living thing you are likely to run into is a bear.

5. My idea of "shopping"...looking for treasure on a beach!

6. I like to watch bears...close up!

7. I lived in this 16x16 basically one room cabin (most people's living rooms are bigger than this!) for almost 7 years while we built our house/strip. Not alone, but with my hubby and dog.

8. Favorite ice cream: Hagaan Daz Coffee flavor
9. I love to listen to old time Alaskans tell their stories
10. I never thought I would hear myself say "I've been married 16 years!"
11. I used to be (up till 2 years ago) terrified of the dark
12. I've recently come to the realization that I have been here on planet Earth longer than I probably will be...makes me think.
13. I still have NO idea what I want to be if I ever grow up.

Okay, so if they were secrets I would have to keep them, right?? So I just decided I would post some things that most people don't know about me :)

DancingDolphin Great post.... it's really fun finding out a little more about everyone! That bear shot totally freaks me out... I've had a few too many up close and personal experiences with them and won't go anywhere I'm likely to see one!

paintbox Great idea for a blog! I love your pictures and the little view into your life. The bear picture - a little too close for me. Beautiful shot of your dog. #5-you're my type person. Hunting for ANY kind of treasures. #8 - Haagen Das (sp?) yes! Vanilla Bean.

Genevieve Beautiful post...this theme was a neat idea. I LOVE the beach shot...how so very lovely! I dream of living in a small cabin. Three of us live in a 900 sq ft townhouse co-op and I still think it's too much space...though by North American standards this is a small home.

youlookmahvelous Taking great pictures is not one of the 13 things people don't know about you. These are great.

soldotnamanda Would you believe that there were some things that I JUST learned about you? Awesome post! I was thinking . . . i need to visit Alaska that looks SO COOL. Then I realized . . . I live here too! Your pictures were so fun - thanks for sharing.

MHJphotos Okay ... I came BACK to this wonderful post again! That Brown Bear shot is fantastic! I completely missed the cub with mama the first go around. You guys couldn't have been more than 20-25 yards away. Outstanding. Please show us more shots this summer when the bears are gorging on salmon!

bettyluvsduncan I just read Mat's comment and had to go back and look at the bear picture. I missed it too! I didn't even see the baby. I'm surprised you could get that close when the cub was there. You are totally living the dream. Good for you! Thanks for sharing things about you too.
