Haines

So I have been here for 3 days and I'm loving it! My cell phone doesn't work which bothered me at first, but now I have to say I enjoy being cut off from the world. You never realize just how busy your every day life is until you get a huge break from it. I'm not running to answer my phone, wondering what my "big plans" for the weekend are or feel obligated to go somewhere I don't want to. Its like being retired and having all day to do nothing. Everyone is amazingly nice the smartest, sweetest people you will ever meet in your entire life live in the small town of Haines, it's amazing! It's fun, Justin and I were walking to other day and we met a guy that looked like a "thug" he had baggy pants, a baggy hoodie, tattoos and a cigarette hanging out of his mouth. However he still stopped to say "hello" as we walked past him. The people who come into the museum come from all walks of life too. I have met people from Norway, Canada, Colorado, California, Australia, London and the list goes on! Justin is going to start a map in his room and mark off the countries as we meet someone from them. It sounds stupid but it's going to be cool when the summer comes to an end and we get to look back and see where the people come from.
