It's easier to sneak away to bed at 7 pm in winter after it's been dark for hours. Now, there's still enough light, like I should be doing something. #ME2AK #JuneauSpring2026

I've been reading Empire of Light by Sidney Perkowitz. It explains vision, how light enters our eyes through the pupil, hits the retina, and all the cones and rods that send impulses to the brain that interprets what we see based on what we already know. In other words, it's magic. #ME2AK #LightYear

For sure, I read books! I try to read two or three books at a time each month: a fiction, a nonfiction, and an audio book. #BookReader #ME2AK #AmReading

My husband baked a Meyer lemon pie. He doesn't bake, so this was a big deal. An old high school friend sent him a box of lemons from California. Also a big deal. Thank you. Thank you. #ME2AK #MeyerLemonPie #HusbandBakes #Friendship

I have many golden-crowned sparrows in my yard today. I learned during a Juneau Audubon bird walk that they're just passing through. They discovered my bird feeder and also are all over the ground. #ME2AK #JuneauBirds #GoldenCownedSparrow #JuneauAudubon

Free Pile Season in Juneau reminds me of the scene in Zorba the Greek when Madame Hortense (Bouboulina) dies, and the villagers in waiting infest her home like ants at a picnic and take all her stuff. #ME2AK #ZorbaTheGreek #FreePile #JuneauSummer26

Books are my favorite gifts for children.
