This is the Alaska I imagined before I arrived. Glad to know it can still deliver!
Moose!

Alaska is kinda odd.
Alaska is spectacular.
Every now and then, Safari on my Mac just stops accepting taps on links. The only recourse is to quit and restart. Refreshing the page does nothing. Seems like a bug.
Working from my backyard is so nice. I should do this more.
Today I learned that former presidents aren’t allowed to drive after they leave office.
This image captures a tragic story of cheese in Oregon. #iykyk
The tallest bridge in Oregon. Kind of disappointing it’s not easier to walk out onto.
Beautiful fog
Hopscotch art installation in Portland. Pretty cool!
I’m glad there’s finally reporting about how stores locking up their goods behind glass cases is bad for business. I HATE going to Target, etc now. And I’ve definitely had the impulse to purchase from Amazon to avoid what is now a very unpleasant shopping experience.
Shore Acres is such a beautiful place.
Working on something new, and I’m kind of excited about it…
Visited the Oregon coast this past weekend and when I came back to my car, I met a new friend!
Finished reading: “Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman!”: Adventures of a Curious Character by Richard P. Feynman 📚
This was a great companion read to the Oppenheimer bio. Feynman was a fascinating character in every sense of the word.
Finished reading: American Prometheus by Kai Bird 📚

This past weekend, I spent some time digging around the Internet Archive and discovered a copy of my very first micro-blogging site. I’ve mostly recovered and republished it here: hazelware.micro.blog
Internet rot is real. Many thanks to @manton for the assistance getting it propped back up.
My president acknowledged that the taxes I pay have been funding bombs that have been used to kill civilians, and I find that overwhelmingly depressing and I feel completely helpless.
Love this sculpture in the New Orleans Museum of Art by Wangechi Mutu.
Finished reading: Boom Town by Sam Anderson 📚
Wow OKC is a crazy place with an even crazier history! So much in this book. I really enjoyed it.
