Hey all,

Well, life is good in Alaska this week. The sun has been out everyday and that makes all the difference. I don’t know what the temperature has been, but according to the hatchery temp records, it’s been high 40s, low 50s. Sounds cold to you all probably but it’s comparable to your 80 degrees right now! Especially if you are sitting on the porch.

Just wanted to write a small thing to let you in on a little news… I have gotten a little upgrade here in the company. Sometime soon, I will officially become a “permanent seasonal.” Sounds like an oxymoron, I know. But with the “permanent” title comes big and better things. Health insurance, paid vacation, and a bit more responsibility. All of the details haven’t been figured out yet, and I’m not sure when my status will change. I think I will be on salary pay now, and that’s what the boss still had to figure out I think. I will be working 10 months still, but I think I can take those 2 months, broken up whenever I want, assuming it works out with the schedule and things.

Anyhow, I guess that’s all I know right now. I just wanted to let you know. :-)
