Jobe with his friend, Dusty the cropduster

Jobe with his friend, Dusty the cropduster. Lynxton is still asleep. He was very hyper last night and was bouncing around on the bed until after 1 AM.

Last Abby's breakfast for a while– no school buses rolling out there

I wondered if they would hold school in the valley today. I thought they might take Veterans Day off as a holiday, but since Kalib had to go to school in Anchorage today I wasn't sure. But there are no schoolbuses rolling by out there so today must be a holiday for Mat-Su students. As for me, I just finished what will be my last breakfast at Abby's for at least three weeks. This afternoon, I jump on a plane and go to Barrow.

The Daily School Bus: from almost a week ago

Again, as I expected, I did not see a school bus today it being Sunday. I did see this one early last week. I spotted it in the distance, coming down Seldon towards me but I had to turn on Sarah's way. So I crept slowly along until it showed up in the mirror behind. 

This will be it for today.

He does not want to, but Kalib must go

Kalib did not want to leave. He shed tears. "No!" he protested. As one grows, he must learn that not only does one not always get to do what he wants, but sometimes he must do things he does not want to do. Like go to school. So, leaving his little brothers behind, Kalib followed his dad to the car as the family dog followed him.

Metro Cafe Barista drinks coffee at Kaladi Brothers

Shocked! I am certain many of my regular readers are just simply shocked! Kristina! Barista at Metro Cafe! How could you? For that matter, how could I? I went in to Kaladi Brothers to get me a coffee today along with another to bring home to Margie and there was Kristina, drinking a Kaladi Brothers coffee. Kristina was not being disloyal. Neither was I. Carmen keeps Metro Cafe closed on Sundays. We had to get our coffee somewhere. Kaladi Brothers is the second best coffee shop in Wasilla and was a good choice. Plus, Kristina had a paper to do for a class. She finds a coffee shop a better place to work than home. She said she was putting 10 hours in on that paper.
