This would have been my sister Susie's sixty second birthday but she checked out early. I'm not sure why but she seemed to do everything she could to cut her life short like smoking like a chimney and drinking like a fish. If anything she had a better shot at having a good life then either my brother Tom or me because she was the first born so had first dibs on things like going to college. She was actually a pretty good student in high school, unlike us 2 boys. She did start at UofM but I don't think she even finished 2 full years. She had a big beautiful wedding and married a really nice guy. Within 3 years she had thrown it all away to be with a guy that had one ambition. To be the worlds oldest hippie. While Tom and I were growing up in the 70s and 80s, Susie stayed just like she was. When I would talk to her about changing her life, and we did have some heated discussions about it, she would say she wasn't hurting anyone so just leave her alone. She may not have physically hurt anyone like her husband did to her, but she really hurt her mother by dieing so young. Hopefully she is in a better place now.
I did some tweaking on the web page this past week. I just uploaded the files this morning so I hope it works. I fixed some formating errors I discovered and added a reference to Alaska time below the webcam picture. I also changed the overnight picture to a goodnight picture instead of leaving the last webcam picture up all night.
Spring is really exploding around here. The birch and poplar trees all have their new baby leafs, and even the grass is greening up. I checked Nancy Lake yesterday and it still is mostly ice but there is a lot of open water around the edge, so it wont be long.
I just discovered a mistake on the web page so I have to go fix it.....Later
