Some Quick Notes

I apologize to all of those who follow this blog with a passion (namely my mother). My time has been so tied up in adventuring that I haven't had a chance to write an update, and that adventuring has been full indeed. Last week I made the long trek up to Denali National Park to visit my little sister and her sled dogs. We had a wonderful time painting the park red; there were close encounters of the Ursus arctos kind, torrential rainstorms, baked goods involving avocados, and sightings of rare species such as lynx, tricolored foxes and (gasp) Mt. Mckinley. Good times were had by all.

The past couple days I've been out in the woods at Jordan Lake. The crew of us were brushing out the trail from there to Heckman Lake. I enjoyed picking up sticks while watching bald eagles fly down the river. We got back today, later than expected due to cloudy conditions (in southeast Alaska? That's crazy). Tomorrow we're back out in the field redoing a cabin foundation. I'm still foggy on all the details but I'll fill you in when I figure it all out, namely once I've been through it. Happy summer.
