Nice hike today. Sharing a sweet little creek with you.
Wherever I go, I always visit the local #IndependentBookstore In Whitehorse, it is Mac’s Fireweed Books. The lovely, enthusiastic young staff recommended a Romantasy to me very emphatically. I want to know what the young people are reading, so here I go! “Assistant to the Villain” is next.

On my epic road trip to the Yukon, I’m noticing way fewer generators at the campgrounds and way more solar. Lots of folks have panels out. Progress!!
