How does it get to be this time of year so quickly?
Something you probably don't know about me...I want to live in AK year-round. Well, AK 'year-round' which means leaving for 2-3 months sometime between November and February. Anyway, I want to stay so badly that I have nightmares about leaving AK during the summer. It'll be June or July and I'll dream that the summer is already over and that I've been forced to leave the state. And I'll get really agitated and upset and I struggle against the idea of how quickly time has gone by when I know it is not actually time to leave AK.
Don't get me wrong, I'd probably be in WI about this time or a bit later to visit the Fam, but I'd know my return to AK was only a few weeks in the future. It's the SEVEN months until my return that I absolutely hate. I've been trying to set aside that feeling, because it can take away from enjoying what is happening right now (the far more important thing to focus on) but occasionally I'm a bit overwhelmed.
It has a lot to do with the complications of lower 48 life, over crowding, over spending, and the shitty ways some people treat each other. Luckily, I've gone from Seward to (the) Viroqua whcih isn't entirely too drastic of a transition. That one day in Seattle along the way was a bit of culture shcok though....
Onwards to the pictures! (the whambulance is leaving). Following are a random few from the summer. As you do probably know I take THOUSANDs of photos and I'm a procrastinator when it comes to sorting them.....but I will someday.
Okay, my short attention span is too short to keep posting. Someday I'm going to build myself a photo website. Someday. :)

So, I said I would write more often....but I'm feeling a bit uninspired at the moment. Up until about 10 days ago Seward had been experiencing one of the sunniest, warmest summers ever. Then good ol' Mother Nature decided it was time to even out the world and it started raining. It has not stopped since.
Anyway, now that I've cried you a river (I can hear you playing the world's smallest fiddle for me) I get to my point. I have been sorting through my multitude of photos (nearly 10,000) and have begun to post them to my Zenfolio site. I've posted a few below but the rest can be seen at http://www.zenfolio.com/scmillane. Conveniently enough that is where you can also buy them if you are so inclined. If you are, use the code 'blog friends 709' to get a discount. Also, the world wide interweb connection here isn't what you'd call 'fast' in the rest of the universe...point is, check back cause I'm uploading a ton of photos and it's gonna take awhile.
That's it for the sales pitch. Take care, be well, don't get caught.....or something like that.

A note about this blog...
So, you may have noticed there are some pretty old posts here. Well...I'm one of those beaters who had blogs all over the universe and I've finally decided to consolidate them into one place.
Enjoy the stroll down (my) memory lane and get ready to look forward to some new thoughts, photos, ramblings and ideas.

Alright, it may not be that I'm lazy but that I'm overloaded.
Seems like the most likely scenario anyway.
But I feel bad that I haven't been keeping in touch with all of you very well.
Regardless, I'd like you to see my photos...so I've resorted to an web album at Picasa.

So, I'm sorry I don't have a lot of exciting stories to tell right now, but someday I'll get after the writing too.
Miss you all.
