Alaska redux
I don't really know what to say and I'm not often speechless. Before we left the lower 48, Michael said this would be a life changing adventure and he was right.
I always resent coming back to real life from a wonderful trip, but this time it's worse than ever. New York City is the anti-Alaska, far too full of people, noise, litter, and general crap. Out there, in the bush, there was nothing between us and the world (except a tent at night). The raw immediacy of life was intoxicating and I want more. I'm no fool. I know I couldn't live like that all the time. But I also know I'm going back for more.
Until I get my thoughts together more eloquently, here are some images to outline the story. More to follow.

Rita! Now I have witnesses. Noatak in 2013!
Looks absolutely amazing!
Having seen Ellen and Michael in the flesh since their return, I can tell you they are changed. There is a light, an energy, and a calm that is beautiful to see and to be around.
I'm going.
