Not just a skiff, this picture was taken 3 hours ago and it's still accumulating, 6" so far.

Sitting here reading your post and this young teenager walked by. Boy I'm glad I live in Alaska where the morning temp is nice and the snow is gone. Not like the lower 48

Did you get your floats yet

Raining and 74 in north Alabama.

Nope. Nor my float rating. I did fly up to Talkeetna, had lunch, then stopped in to see a friend who was stomped by a moose about a month ago, and I guess I was so enjoying socializing that I completely forgot to meet up with Don Lee (need to see if I can get in/out of his plane). So I apologized profusely and plan on flying back up there this next week.

Busy week in the PNW:

Helicopter camping near Bandon, Oregon:


Riding up empty sand dunes Florence:


Logging roads, Toledo:

Man, that's one noisy coffee maker. I wouldn't want to pitch my tent next to yours when hoping for a quiet woodsy experience. That said, how was the coffee? On my airplane camping trips I take an Aeropress coffee maker. It is like a camper's version of a French press. A small propane burner heats the water with a barely noticeable hiss. I also heat some oat milk and froth is with a battery powered frother. Mix the hot coffee and the frothed milk and I have a latte to enjoy in my folding chair watching the world go by.

Your forgiven, for now but don't let it happen again young man
