hype and disappointment

this about sums up my last week I slept on the line of the arctic circle! then road a few hundred miles (all dirt) to deadhorse (I dont have time to put up another map but it's almost on the north coast) it took me 11+ hours.

this is the back of the sign

I slept on the observation deck in the back ground behind the sign

it goes on FOREVER... well from the north coast to the south coast of AK

I MADE IT... I look a lot happier then I really was, the temperature dropped down to 34 in a matter of hours this was taken at about 9pm by the post master, the general store, NAPA parts store, and the post office were all in the same building...

so after all the hype of me talking about jumping into the arctic the disappointment is that they only allowed you to go up to your knees... but whatever I was in the arctic... more on all this later the library is closing...

excited

right now I wish I was there... :) owell soon enough... I also am reading an awesome book called "Ghost Rider" by Neil Perart the drummer of the Canadian band RUSH. So I am getting a lot of ideas and becoming more anxious... but yeah about 20 days and I'm off... Sooo much to do but I feel comfortable enough that I could leave tomorrow. (except the one small detail of my tire being flat...)
