Last wildfire season a dear friend almost lost their home. Firefighters saved it. This year they harvested morels on their property. She shared some with me ❤️

The American Kestrel—North America's smallest falcon—is famous for its ability to "wind-hover". By angling its body into the wind, rapidly flapping its wings, and making subtle tail adjustments, the bird stays completely stationary in midair to spot and ambush prey like insects and small rodents.

It’s Wild Iris season in Alaska 😍

Look at the size of that mosquito! Wearing nets is the only way to get through any significant trail walking this time of year. Ola has natural hair protection. Her nose is her only vulnerable spot .

Facelift gone wrong.

Greetings and good morning it’s the Tuesday farm rush hour as we get our animals cool and hydrated due to extreme weather

Blessed rain. 🥰

Happy summer solstice everyone.

My new ride. I helped give a preview tour of the new transportation museum in Fairbanks yesterday and we did a little wing walking for fun.

77°F and mostly sunny in Fairbanks.

I was cutting up cardboard boxes for recycle and found this delightful surprise art on the inside of a big box.

The boys are guarding the west wall …

Today was final exams and graduation day at dog class. Not to brag or anything but Oak passed and has earned official title of “Good Boy”

Without mail voting in Alaska much of the state would be disenfranchised, probably more so than any other state. Many people have no road access. How often have voting centers just not opened in the bush? Often weather conditions stop ballots from being delivered to vote counting centers. #akleg

This is so nicely written 💚

We interrupted someone’s bath-time fun today.

Utqiaġvik up to 33F (+0.6C) Tuesday mid-afternoon. This is the first time it’s been above freezing since October 12, 2025. The 232 consecutive days with highs at or below freezing is not even close to a record. #akwx #weather #Climate @climatologist49.bsky.social

Congrats to all the winners!

Have to behave and pay attention in doggie obedience class … BUT after-school socializing is a blast … a time to sniff butts and get to know each other. 🤣

“Stop blowing up fricking Iran, man. That’s costing us hundreds of millions of dollars a day, if not more. This is something you’re not going to win. You’ve got to take care of your own home first. My wife’s a veteran. We’re not going to give up. We fight.” open.substack.com/pub/ofthebra...

GREEN … the difference 2 weeks makes. 😊

I really needed to hear this “Best People” hopeful episode. Ken Burns and Nicolle Wallace interview, well worth a listen. youtu.be/mXj07imTjsE

@idaholark.bsky.social My to-do list, a blast from the past … made me think of you and those happy days at ABO 😊

THANK YOU David Letterman & Stephen Colbert for a lifetime of smart satire, laughs, speaking truth to power & sending us to bed with a smile on our collective faces. You will be missed. 🙏 #EndOfAnEra
