Softball under the Midnight Sun...

Matt took off for a much deserved two week vacation to Colorado and Nebraska tonight. Although it was a pretty dull day outside, when I took him to the airport, the clouds had cleared and the mountains were sparkling.


Right after I dropped off Matt, I headed for the softball field. Leah and I both play for the Pioneer Bar Dog Salmon...a classy team that truly enjoys hanging out with each other every week while playing a sport we all enjoy...and sometimes grabbing a brew at the Pio after the game. 

Our game on Wednesday night was at 9:45...

yes, 9:45 PM.

...and we didn't play under stadium lights. We played under the sun.


After the game and after talking with our teammates for about an hour, we headed home...but not before taking a picture under the "midnight sun" (it was literally 12:00 midnight). I don't think I'll ever get used to the crazy late sunset in Anchorage...

In other news I read that Thursday, June 7 is National Chocolate Ice Cream Day...




are you going to celebrate?
