    Now that right there is funny I don't care who you are. God bless those little face mask wearing pygmies down there in New Guinea.

    And another note on complacency... boo me. I backed in the other day to unload water jugs. Didn't plug in because I don't keep it plugged in if I'm not going anywhere. Wasn't too worried about it, actually didn't even think about it because it was fairly warm. Woke up to -30 or so this morning. Not plugged in and extension cord doesn't reach when I am backed in. Rerouted cords (had to wade through snow drifts and crawl around underneath the cabin, still about 2' short. Damn. Walked to neighbors and they loaned me a small one. Yay. So now, just waiting for the magic to happen. Will be a few hours late to work but that's ok.

    I do love our arctic extension cords. They are specially made to withstand the cold and to keep pliable without the outer casing cracking and breaking off. They also have lighted ends so we can make sure power is going through them.

    YIPPPIIII!!! I did it. I'm in one of the Fiddlerman.com's group project. 33 members playing 8 different parts making a total of 50 different tracks, and a few different instruments, it was huge. Merry Christmas friends! See if you can pick me out (second set of people, red hair, cabin.



    And to justify putting this in my Alaska thread, I'll just say, due to my remoteness, there are not a lot of opportunity to play with others so playing with my online buddies is a second best.

    My little Solstice/10th Anniversary in Alaska party. I'll write more about it on my blog tomorrow. But for tonight, I am going to sleep well and "try" to sleep in.
