I'm off to Alaska for Christmas. My bestest friend in the whole world lives in Girdwood, near Anchorage. Of all he towns in Alaska, Girdwood comes closest to the mythical town represented in Northern Exposure. Ted Stevens also has a home there.
Here's a picture of my friend and me at a Winter's Solstice party in Girdwood. Jim's a stained glass artist. His studio is next door to the Double Musky which is undoubtedly Alaska's finest restaurant. Here's a picture of Jim and his studio.
I wanted to put a video of me singing a Christmas carol on my blog, but never got the opportunity to do the video, so I JibJab'ed it instead. Y'all have a great Christmas, and here's my Christmas greeting.
I'm so, so jealous. I want to go to Alaska too.
You know, if you'd bring me along, I'd even promise to agree with all your political views for the entire duration of the trip.
I love Alaska.
Have a great trip.

Christmas was great. It's snowed every day since I arrived.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas.
