Record Breaking Weekend

Two records were broken this weekend. Neither of which concern anybody other than ourselves and possibly a few other Dutch Harborians.


Record #1: 9.5 hours of uninterrupted sleep! That's more than three and a half hours longer than Senor has ever slept consecutively. (Not counting gestation, of course.) And after a 5AM feeding, he slept for two more hours. Hooray for Senor! We were all so well rested the next glorious morning we didn't know what to do with ourselves. So we went sledding on the beach and the dunes at Summer Bay, where Revel-Roo also set a Big-Air sledding record.



Okay, so it's kind of hard to see. But if you look carefully, you can see where he was airborne for a good two feet or so. (Don't worry, he had a spotter. And he was wearing his seatbelt.)


Record #2: The Sunday newspaper arrived in Dutch Harbor. On Sunday! The same Sunday! This may not be noteworthy to most folks, but here in Dutch Harbor it is something truly spectacular. In the 10 months we've lived here, it has never happened. The paper usually arrives 3-4 days later than the date on the cover. (A couple months ago we were pumped when the paper arrived just one day late.)

In other news, our Dell laptop finally bit the dust. And we aren't even sad about it.

Sledding fun:
