The LumberJill

Greetings:

On my recent trip to Alaska (pictures are forth coming I promise) I had the pleasure of attending the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show. It was a tad over done and certainly a tourist thing, but still fun and interesting. What I loved most about it was meeting a Lumberjill. She was the MC of the show. After the show I chatted with her and she told me a little about being a Lumberjill. She really loves it and does most of what a Lumberjack does. She chooses not to do two of the most dangerous things that Lumberjacks do, I thought that was really smart. The Day today "Don't Worry If Your Job Is Real, Just Make Sure It Is Real Fun" was inspired by my Lumberjill friend. If you go to the website you can see a slide show of her and some of the Lumberjacks performing in the show. The slide show is almost exactly what I saw when I was there. A little more exciting in person but you'll get the idea.
