Day 1 at Delta Junction (07/07/2009)

First priority is to find a place to live; this is proving much more difficult than we thought. Delta Junction is a small place at the intersection of the Alaska Highway and Richardson Highway. (Even though it is small, it is very confusing ~ it is spread out so much.) Highway work crews or contractors at Fort Greely take almost all of the rentals up until August. We have an appointment tomorrow with a realtor to show us a duplex. We went by today to get Alaska driver licenses but decided to wait since we have to take the written test. We picked up the books to study, oh fun. It will only cost us $100 to register our car for two years. I checked in at the Board of Education and immediately went into a construction meeting with the building winterization crew. I sat there, listened, and wondered how the school is going to start on time. I will continue to attend the Tuesday morning meetings, the superintendent said the one the 21st should be very interesting since that is when they will review the schedule to determine if the school start date will be delayed. Well it is time to head over to the IGA and see what the local grocery store is like.
