		<description><![CDATA[We celebrated Mother&#8217;s Day yesterday - a day early.

As we turned off the Seward Highway onto the Alyeska Highway, we noticed there was still snow on the ground. As we [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;Da Ski Boy. Peter is so excited! This is the first time he&#8217;s ever won!!!!
I admit, I&#8217;m very surprised that the ice went out this early. There was a part of me that was sure that it wouldn&#8217;t go out until sometime in June. But it went out today, May 6th. Which is right around [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not sure what I was thinking when I set the entry deadline at midnight on April 29th. It should end on April 30th - the end of the month! So, by fiat I&#8217;ve extended the deadline by one day. Click here to enter now!

If we both walk in with the poochies, it&#8217;s a bit of a keystone cops on the car front. We both [...]]]></description>
