So here it is. The very glittering thing that we wanted to find up here has arrived again. How silly we were, thinking summer was our dream. It's always been winter. So full, so round, so frozen.

Xander says it looks like glitter, I said it looks like someone shook glitter all over everything. He says it sounds like walking in a bag of potato chips. He got that from Recess at 20 below (a book about kids @ recess up around Fairbanks)...

Everything looks and feels right now. Alaska is back. And so are we.
