Today in Anchorage

[AKGhost]

That's my fault Thor. I forgot one strip of caribou suet that I put out for the birds this winter. Must have brought them in.

I doubt it. A common occurrence in my 'hood.

What a great story, thør

The last photo was not from Anchorage, but was taken just a bit south of here on May 1. Today it's snowing.

What a great story, thør.

And that pic you quoted was taken very close to where you live.

Ya, I quoted wrong, I was going back and forth between the two. Did you take that pic? Are you in my neck of the woods?

Na, it was on one of my feeds for news, etc. And it was pretty. And it reminded me of back when I was 12 or so, working on the beach with my grandfather.

It's gorgeous. Certainly not taken anytime recently. This snow is really pooping on my day.

It was supposed to have been taken May 1.

The snow wasn't sticking on the driveway at 6:30a, but it was close.

Hmmm, perhaps we cleared up on Wednesday. I can't even remember yesterday.

No stickage here, but no bueno to be out in either.

I saw this cool website yesterday, and this bike, and thought of you. It's kind of funky.

Interesting. I'm going to have to check out their Kickstarter. 20" wheels are small for my normal day to day, but for a travel bike, they'd be fine.

And you need fat tires a lot don't you? I like quirky, gadgetry stuff.

I don't need fat tires all the time. My commuter ride had tires just beefy enough to take the gravel roads I traverse. Quirky gadgets are cool when they work like they are supposed to.

Sweet! I thought you'd have some fancy cushy seat. Every time I do a cycling class, it feels like I got dry fucked.

Do people just not fucking understand?

Woman and kids "rescued" from hay flats.

"Chief Frank Kirk says the woman and a 13-year old boy and an 8-year old girl walked onto the flats from a parking area along Hayfield Road to do some birdwatching. Kirk says they were about a mile away from the parking area when they became cold and disoriented. The woman called 911 for help."

Fucking cell phones should be banned. People rely on them too damn much.

Were they just out there in their sneakers? Stupid people everywhere.

Now they might 'try' it again.

If they had to get their own asses out of a simple jam, they'd think twice, next time.

You forgot an image or link. However, Google is my friend:

D'oh! Thank you, Harold.

I like how they're sleeping in the bones.
