Sunset in Whitehorse about 10:00pm last night.

I am feeling a little sad today. I think the high of travel has worn off a little and I miss my doggy and other Montreal specific essentials. For example there is no longer a free wifi cafe in the city of whitehorse - not one. I had to beg a password off the ownners of the cranberry bistro in exchange for design work - which is awesome of them by the way. But it makes me feel a little like a goldfish out of my climate controlled tank.

Notably, the fact of the no free wifi has proven that I am completed addicted to the internet. On sunday when Ruth told me The cafe that had free wifi last time I was up had quit offering that service I quite literally began to have a small twitch just in my spacebar/rightclick finger

The good news (of course there is good news I am on vacation) due to the sketchy internet I have no choice but to find real vacation activities. Today for example I am going to go biking up to Miles Canyon, and tomorrow we are all going kayaking and fishing on long-lake.

And.. if everything works out right, saturday and sunday we will go camping in Haines Alaska.

The only problem I see at present is that I had hoped to remake my business card and my website while on vacation - my busness cards still say: "html, photoshop and dreamweaver" not so accurate anymore.

It's looking like I may not have time though. I think I may get blank rectangles made at an office supply place and then have stamp cut instead. I really hate the 500 peices of useless paper that i have left of my old business cards anyways, it's a total waste of paper. In the ecosystem of web development my new business card will porbably be archival in another two years and I just don't give out 1000 business cards in that span of time.

Anyways, it's noon now and I only have another 3 hours of time left at this connection better get some work hours in.
