how much wood, would a wood-duck, duck, if a wood-duck, would duck wood?

First off, my pre-arranged housing didn't work out. I was supposed to be housed with Rena in Juneau. Instead, I was housed out with Hannah at John and Darla Orbistondo's on Wood Duck Lane. You might say, "Tee-hee, silly street name." -But no, the depths of that name are frightening. We were shoved into a room downstairs that was decorated with DUCKS. They had three different duck pictures hung on the wall, an actual wooden duck, duck curtains, and duck sheets. -The only thing that wasn't "ducky" was a picture of, well, a duck-hunting dog! Don't believe me? Click here to view proof.

Well, we pretty much got used to the duckyness of the room, deciding it was just a guest room and they thought it'd be cute to decorate according to their street name... However, one night, when we arrived very late, we found Mr. and Mrs. Orbistondo sleeping on the couch/floor in the living room! -How nice of them to let us stay in their room... But this means that they actually ARE obsessed with ducks! It wasn't just a guest room with lots of ducks, but instead their own personal bedroom, filled with duckyness!

Yeah, besides weird housing... Hannah was pretty freaked out by some crazy driving we encountered... An ol' pal of mine in Juneau offered up a ride and we hopped in. -Anything to avoid the Capitol Transit public bus. She was driving pretty crazy, never slowing for turns, driving 80 MPH, while Hannah and I exchanged worried looks. It got even worse when she turned and said, "Oh, by the way, my breaks are going out..."

Superb time in Juneau... Ketchikan beat Juneau after an overtime and bad reffing... Juneau girls won as usual.
