The week fab hubby was gone to Alaska fishing was a pretty sad week. I was fine during the day but when at night I missed him so much. Sierra kept saying "I miss Daddy" all week. At night she would look at his side of the bed and ask "where is Daddy? On vacation? Ya, Daddy on vacation." It was so sad. I missed our nightly walks. I found out it's no fun to walk alone.

We talked almost every night. He didn't get a lot of sleep. His brother snores really, really bad and it kept him up all night. He wore ear plugs but it wasn't enough. His bro fired back "you snore too!" Um, no he doesn't. I'm the lightest sleeper in the world and he doesn't snore.

He loved Alaska. He thought it was so beautiful there. I have to agree from the pics.

He caught this weird spiny fish that has a venom on it's spines. He got a little cut on his finger it. It was swollen with a little bit of pus. Another guy up there caught one and kicked back into the water. The spines went right through his boot. That stupid decision had him limping the rest of the week.

He saw a ton of whales and some Orca. They were out in freezing water with a big pod of Orca around them. One of the guys with him got totally freaked out.

He caught the biggest Salmon of the trip. Yummm!

He caught about five halibut and the other two guys caught two each. They share all the fish they catch.

He loved the area they were in. This is the little cabin he and his brother stayed at.

When I went to pick him up he took forever. He and a few others were standing around the carousel waiting. His 50 pound box of fish never came. Delta took it and a bunch of other baggage off the plane. It was supposed to come yesterday. Hubby called and called and no one knew where it was. We were so disappointed. We knew that even if they did find it, it most likely wouldn't be good anymore.

It finally came today and it was still a little frozen. I threw that into the freezer. The fish that wasn't frozen was still cold so we are eating that tonight. Fish tonight! Woo!!!
