Mostly lurking from Petersburg AK. I like history, reading, walking, travel, animals, nature, food. Please enjoy my pretty pictures.
I’m making (modest) donations to help flood victims in #Ukraine. If you would like to do so at an organization I trust, here is the link to #WorldCentralKitchen relief effort there. https://donate.wck.org/give/398293/#!/donation/checkout

On June 2, 1863, 160 years ago today, Harriet Tubman commanded 300 Black soldiers in the audacious Raid on Combahee Ferry. With the Union Army backing her up, The General, as she was called, liberated 800 people, destroyed supplies, and struck a blow against the Confederacy. She became the FIRST woman in U.S. history to plan and execute an armed expedition, inspiring joy and freedom among over 800 enslaved people.

Yesterday was stunning though cool in the mid-50’s F (~14 C). Gorgeous #walk or #hike up the Raven Trail on Mitkof Island. Today we’re back in the 40’s (9 C) with steady rain. #MyAlaskaWx
#walk around Cloverleaf Island in Duncan Canal. Cool, breezy showers persist through the weekend, with an occasional glimpse of sun. #MyAlaskaWx 50 F (10 C). #lichensubscribe
Luxurious feathery #moss and leafy Lobaria #lichen growing on a grand old cottonwood tree in SE #Alaska. #mosstodon #lichensubscribe
We had a lovely #walk today, through the forest, around the lakes, down to the ocean. #DogsOfMastodon #Alaska
#MyAlaskaWx 64 F (18 C) with 8 mph breeze out of the east. The breeze might keep us off the forecast high of 77 F but I’m not complaining! Stick obsessed #poodle is having a good time. Looking across the Wrangell Narrows to Kupreanof Island.
Picked the crab pot this morning. It felt chilly for 46 F (6 C); I treasure blue skies #MyAlaskaWeather and the beautiful creatures exposed at low #tide #walk #Alaska
Rainy #walk this morning 38 F (3 C). I got soaked but enjoyed listening to the #rain and the birds and finding little signs of #spring in the #rainforest. #MyAlaskaWx #mosstodon #lichensubscribe
Rainy #walk in the #Alaska #rainforest with an all weather #poodle. #DogsOfMastodon
