October 6, 1995

So i WAS in Seward.  Wrong vibes so now I’m in Hudson, Wisconsin – actually, Menomonie, WI. I’m visiting the cheeseheads I met in Alaska at Trans Aqua.

Seward was not worth it.  I went there in hopes of a JOB!?  Not anything.  I applied for an accounting and waitstaff job. The waitstaff position I got denied hardcore.  The owner basically told me to not come back.  Well, not that it really bothered me that much.  Actually, not at all. I think my mind was made up to leave Alaska a long time before I even went down to Seward.

I spent a day down there and took off.  I stopped by and said goodbye to Per and Carrie.  I started a book of “The Other Side” where I have other people write stories and musing in it.  Then I got my ear pierced and left Alaska.  It took me 6 1/2 days to drive across Canada.

Note – the Edmonton mall was tremendous – roller coaster and everything.
