Anchorage Alaska

So the 24th arrived, I’d started packing at my usual 1am, and manged to have it all wrapped up around 3.

In the evenings Kev and I are doing various home renovation projects, so I’m doing hardware store runs, drinking Corona, watching Holmes on homes fully domesticated, blah, blah, stick me in a wooden box.

Then a week ago today I had my first ever car-car accident.

-Also the Arch Biker put a gruppo in the dishwasher; the finish on his cranks needed to be restored with silver polish, and the anodizing came off his seat post.
