First snow and Good Life Reggae

Well, fall was nice ... for the few weeks it was here.

We got our first snow of the season yesterday, ten days earlier than average, and we're due to get another 2 to 6 inches over the next two days. Since the summer was so wonderfully yucky, we had to finish out the year with another batch of yuck.

So, here we go again ... winter is here whether we're ready or not. Here's what it looked like out our back window yesterday:


Even though the winter is here, we're doing our best to stay warm with the help of a little reggae music. This past Saturday, Andrew and Cameron (aka. Good Life Reggae) held the first Reggae Sound Clash at Bernie's Bungalow Lounge downtown.

Everyone from the Caribbean in Alaska showed up. Well, ok, not everyone, but I bet we had the largest concentration of islanders in one room in Anchorage that night. Here are a few pictures:

In completely unrelated news ... we're keeping the lost cat. Found out she's a girl, not microchipped and has no parents to be found. So, it's snowing and we're happy to know she's safe inside. Hopefully, our runaway found a new warm couch to hang out on, too.
