[once again, notes are just to provide understanding of a sentence that is insane.]

Well, this is the second livejournal entry on paper [note: well, it was on paper...]. I last 'updated' on Tuesday, right? Well, Tuesday night went fairly well. We saw the magician/comedian Garry Carson. It was pretty funny. He was very good. I don't think I'll laugh as hard...harder...[note: um, this sentence is really messed up! My writing is cryptic!!] I don't think I'll laugh as hard as I laughed Tuesday night [note: does that make sense?] Then we went to the musical/horror...musical...it was very Broadway, let's just leave it at that. Yesterday [note: meaning Wednesday, June 22] we went to Glacier Bay (took lots of pictures) + danced [note: I'm assuming by writing danced that we danced at the restuarant onborad ship...I'll will explain the dance furthermore when I get around to posting the pictures]. Today we stopped off at Skagway where my great great something [note: maybe more greats?] grandfather went way back in the 1800s [note: to dig for gold...]. It's a small town...Jerry, our bus driver, said that there's only one school and it had 107 students, and it is a K-12 school...graduating class is a very low number, like 7 or 5. There's a mountain called no-name mountain. [note: from now on, writing gets a little choppy, so try to understand it. Usually when I have to write a LJ entry, I like writing it on the computer, and writing a LJ entry on paper gets me cranky and impatient that...I like typing better than writing]. Summer solstice=24 hours of darkness.

Story time! Sebastian, a dogsledder, had a dog (it was the lead dog), and Jerry had to babysit said dog. Anyway, the dog ran off somehow, and Jerry had to catch it (he told us that bikes are the most commonly stolen objects in Skagway. One time someone stole his bike, and he found it three days later at the post office). So he gets on this bike, right? And he chases the dog around town, and then the chase goes to the airport strip. Funny thing is that no one tells him to get off the airport strip--so he was chasing the dog up and down the strip. He eventually gets the dog back.

More information about Jerry (yes, I liked Jerry)=Jerry was wearing a Johnny Cash t-shirt. And then in Skagway something about a Red Onion Saloon being haunted (I think the 'haunted' part intrigued me). More little notes that aren't important: (this is all dogsledding info) lead dogs-females are the best. Dogs keep running forever w/o owner, they run to their death, checkpoint-no outside help-little boots for each dog; Libby Riddler=first female to win Iditarod.
