Now that I've arrived in Anchorage, aired out and cleaned out the car, and showered, I'm heading off to my summer job in Seward (about 2 hrs. from here) in the morning. I feel like the real adventures are finally going to begin once I leave behind my last 2 Willamette buddies for a town I've never been to and where I don't know a soul. Heck, I don't even know my plans for housing starting tomorrow morning! More than anything, I'm feeling super curious as to how things are going to play out and settle down. It's been a long time in limbo since classes ended and I'm ready for the next straight patch of road. Sometimes I feel like the turning points and corners of a journey might be the most exciting, but it's nice to be able not to think about the next step, sit back and reflect as well.
I'm going to try and unplug as much as possible this summer, but post occasionally, so best wishes to all of you! Hopefully I'll get my feet up some of those great mountains I've been admiring for the last two days- I'm dying to hit the trail. Thanks for all of the stimulating conversations and adventures that have helped lead me to this crazy-amazing place I'm at now- I've learned and grown so much lately, thanks to many of you!
Love, Jules
PS- Latest music for me has been Nickel Creek, the Dixie Chicks and the Wailin' Jennys (bluegrass/folk), Braille, Zion I and Common (hip-hop/rap), Third Eye Blind (thanks, Timm and I-town) and Rage Against The Machine!
