A Post for a Hot Night

Uggh. One day back from Seattle and Iiiiimmm Meltinggggg! The only place in the country with decent weather at the moment was Seattle. Hmm. Still, it's nice to be home. Flying into Burlington yesterday, I saw little Vermont with new and grateful eyes.

Anywho - since it is hot and I am feeling all-in here's a little video I took as we were dieseling away from Skagway, Alaska last week. Also featured is Shack, who is acting like a nut and modeling his Russian army hat, which we had procured at the Russian American store in Skagway. The hat was the hit of the trip. I am hoping that somewhere under that hat he will keep the images of the scenery he saw in Alaska...

Yes, Seattle is the place this year where summer failed to launch... we've had 66 minutes of 80 degree plus weather since June 21st... glad you were able to get out to see some of the sight here in my town. I'd love to see Vermont someday, especially in the fall.

Beautiful.

And I love the banner. Did you get out and do a little sea kayaking among the ice flows?

Cheers.

Hi Madge -
Thanks for your comment. Our last day in Seattle (Monday) had perfect weather... It is positively torrid here...

Hey R. No sea kayaking for yours truly. I think I could have arranged for that at one or two stops but it was very $$ and since I have never been in a kayak I was kind of worried about drowning. You see, it is my own weakness that consigned me to a cruise ship...
