Well Lookie There!

While browsing the ol' internet I stumbled across a website, www.AmericanSafariCruises.com whose home page features two photos taken by yours truly (the big photo of the Safari Spirit, and the Three Little Bears). Yeah, and that handsome devil in the blue is me too. : ) Oh, and the picture above is the most incredible Humpback whale encounter I've ever had, at Point Retreat, AK. Kevin is on "outboard left" and I'm on "outboard right," and this photo was taken by Vanessa Franson. BTW - I could have walked off the front of the boat, into the mouths of multiple whales, we were so close. So yes, it really closer than it looks. Gosh, I love my job!

In other news, today is the 1-month anniversary of my moving onto the M/V Wilderness Adventurer, my 156' home for the next year or so. As a pre-funk for the obviously extraordinary day that today is, I brought the luxury of running water to our fine boat last night. I might even be able to take a real, hot shower by Wednesday. OMG.

Well, the teacher is requiring that we actually do work now, so I must go...

Cheers,

Danny

This is what a $2,838.50 photo looks like... : )

So I could have been diligently studying my biology text and notes for tomorrows exam, but I took some time for myself and goofed around with the camera instead. And took my bike out for some riding. And ate a bunch of junk food. THEN I started studying (with beer in hand).

Also, earlier in the day when I wasn't studying, I played with an old Grainger catalog, and Kevin Roberts joined in on the fun. Oy vey.

g'night all,

Danny

I Kissed A Girl....and I liked it!

Yeah, being home is great. : ) Aimee and I have had good catch-up time together (we watched Inglorious Basterds on Friday night - a totally sweet movie) over the past few weeks, I've been loaded up with plenty of work, and school is going well! I'm taking AutoCAD and Cellular Biology, living/working on InnerSea Discoveries' new boats the Wilderness Discoverer and Wilderness Adventurer, preparing for the Safari Spirit's shipyard period, and eventually I'll find some time to work on my truck. So busy would be an understatement, but I'm enjoying it. I haven't touched my cameras for nearly a month, but yesterday I picked up a little toy I'd been eyeing for awhile, and that got me to crack open the ol' Pelican case and toy around for a bit (see photos). Anywho, my battery is fading while I sit here in the Firehouse Coffee parking lot, so I'll leave it at that, and hopefully get some at-home internet by this time next month, when we move the boats to the West Wall in Fisherman's terminal.

Cheers,

Danny
