I mostly lurk from Petersburg in SE Alaska. I like history, reading, walking, travel, camping, animals, flowers, nature, food, weather, humor. My avatar is my dog Jake. He is a medium standard poodle, black, sitting in a bog with orange-colored foliage and a snowy peak in the background. My header is a typically beautiful coastal scene of blues: calm ocean reflecting clouds and sky, with forested hills in the middle ground.

Last Notes npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK #MyAlaskaWx fine-grained snow blowing all around. 24 F (-4 C) winds variable but primarily from the SE about 10 knt. https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/115/794/256/204/702/103/original/9fc24dfb48a268ca.mp4 npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK Blue skies and sunshine! What a gift on these short #winter days. The #snow has been a bit challenging but bright and beautiful. Now we do our stretches to prep for shoveling up to a foot of new snow today before rain begins tomorrow… #MyAlaskaWx https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/115/792/350/667/915/009/original/16db66da6104c237.png npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK The #swans have arrived. I believe these are trumpeter swans just stopping to rest and feed in Blind Slough on Mitkof Island, near Petersburg in Southeast Alaska. #migration #wetlands https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/115/607/902/787/202/874/original/8a1bc44f2425af4b.png https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/115/607/903/091/738/577/original/fc375416899f7192.png npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK Good Morning! Sun is rising, clouds are lifting, fish are jumping, boat is rumbling, coffee is brewing. Every day is a good day. Two whole days of sunshine; we must be living right. #MyAlaskaWx https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/114/857/747/955/109/973/original/89f91b56c01d21f4.png npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK Spring has been chilly and damp. #MyAlaskaWx 50 F (10 C) —felt more like 40– winds 8 kt ESE with sprinkles. A good #walk every day outside. https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/114/558/632/170/812/635/original/878b8bf19568170d.png npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK sure feels like it! 💦. It rained so hard yesterday. So far today we’ve just had a few sprinkles; I can certainly see the showers all around us though. npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK We set a crab pot at low #tide on this very pretty morning. We had some (lately rare) beautiful sunny blue skies this weekend; now overcast and expecting heavy rain beginning tonight. #MyAlaskaWx 54 F (12 C) with a 3 kt breeze from SSE. https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/114/412/284/419/417/463/original/72057c892bba93a4.png npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK I’m told we had over 100 in tiny red (white) Petersburg. In the rain. It was small but heartfelt.

(Although usually when I say that someone says they’ve been around for days.) npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK we just had a little snow shower in Petersburg. But now it’s snaining. npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK A #rainyday #walk in the temperate #rainforest. A local artist hand-paints rocks to place along our trails. I’ve collected a few over the years, but mostly just appreciate them now and leave them for others to find. This tree has been gracefully leaning across this boardwalk for many years. Maybe getting lower. No snow in our forecast, just #rain rain rain. And some wind. #MyAlaskaWx 42 F (6 C), currently calm. https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/113/789/115/980/306/656/original/3c28036fe25e86cc.png https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/113/789/116/464/302/254/original/9778ce5c09f5a441.png npub1qdwa36n9d32c6swgze3erhhx4sxnf2h6uh279ury2ma57ykg64uqwc9s00 BogCranAK Brilliant #aurora this morning with #Mars and #UrsaMajor.
