You know you are in Kodiak when....

  • When traffic reports are replaced by the FISHING REPORTS
  • The water on the floor mat in your car is frozen
  • You automatically remove your boots when entering someone's home
  • You use flat-rate priority mail boxes more than envelopes
  • In Winter, you know who is taking their Vitamin D and who isn't
  • If you don't already have auto-start on your vehicle, you wish you had it
  • You know what a Coastie is, and it doesn't mean you live near the beach
  • You know what Xtra Tuffs are, and you have some
  • You have to do the Kodiak Stomp before entering a store
  • Just because you have a ticket to fly, doesn't mean you will actually leave that day--"weather permitting"
  • It's cheaper to buy DVD's than to have cable TV
  • Store clerks actually wish you a "Merry Christmas"
  • You hear people complain about having to drive "all the way to the other side of town" (10 minutes)
  • Traffic congestion is 3 cars at an intersection
  • Your car doesn't have a chance to warm up before you arrive at work
  • When looking out the window is more reliable than the weather forecast
  • You go to work, church, and shop with the same people
  • Driving a rusty car is "no big deal"

Why we had to change the privacy settings on our blog....

Hi friends and family,

Our apologies for having to tighten down our blog page access.

Lori has been working at a Mental Hospital for the past several months. Unfortunately, she works with a population of patients who have nothing but time on their hands, and access to computers, internet and cell phones. Also unfortunately, these group of people are Criminally insane. Meaning, they have a mental illness and they committed a crime (varying from theft to murder, and anything in between). So instead of prison, they are committed to the Oregon State Mental Hospital.

Lori must wear a name tag that shows both first and last name. In order to protect our internet sites, we have closed them down to invitation only access.

We will continue to update our blog, as we enjoy sharing our life activities with you, and hope this blog inspires you to also create a blog, if you haven't already.

Enjoy Life to the Fullest!

Love,
Matt and Lori
