Quick visit to Alaska

I'm up in Alaska for 4 fun filled days, hanging out with the Paulson family. Alaska is beautiful and rugged with the beautiful mountains and lakes. Nate, Sarah, Elli (turned 1 on Monday) and I have been running, coached XC practice for K-6, went to the zoo, spent time at their cabin on lake Mud... lots of fun. Nate and Sarah popped right out of the water on one ski; I on the other hand took in a face full of water multiple times trying to get up on two. Sarah said I did get on top of the water once, if so it was only for an instant.
Elli has got to be one of the happiest and busiest babies I've met, I'll post some pictures once I return home and can download.
