well yesterday i had to work a half day which i was not happy about so i stayed up late last night and enjoyed my one night off. ugh.
anyhow went downtown around midnight and checked out the ice sculptures downtown. they build some in the middle of town square so i thought i'd show some pics of that. also got to watch a DUI arrest across the street haha sucks for them. then i headed out to Girdwood,Alaska for a late night drive. it was absolutly beautiful but the camera could not capture it. the ocean and moutains lit only by the moonlight and my headlights.
on the way back i stopped and made a dought vid for the hell of it. trying not to be too hard on my brand new studded tires though!

Sorry to read about this incident.
You seem to have the worst luck or live in the state with the worst drivers in the country. I thought Va. and Fla. were bad but, I'm starting to reassess that opinion. I hope she has insurance that will take care of it promptly.
It seems that sometimes you just can't win!
And the beat goes on.

the drivers arent too smart but my luck seems to play a huge hand in it. i wont mention who they have for coverage but i feel i'll be taken care of this time and thats the last i'll speak of it.
the excursion will be out of the shop monday, i have another thread in the excursion forum called "shiny" with pics.
2011 has not been so great to me, lets hope that changes!
