Life in Haines

First full day in Haines! As per usual, it rained all day and never got warmer than around 45 degrees, but I still love being here. In stark contrast to last season, things are ramping up slowly around here for me. I don’t leave to go out on trip until the 24^th, which gives me about a week in town to get my feet underneath me and move into my place.

Speaking of my home, I’m all moved in, and finally got this place clean. After sitting for the winter the trailer had gotten pretty dirty, and so I spent a good part of my morning with a bottle of bleach in one hand and a sponge in the other. I finally got the place clean and got everything out of the car and into the trailer. Living in a camper trailer I am constantly amazed by the people who design these things. There is no shred of space that goes unused in these things. As I kept cleaning I kept finding all sorts of places around the trailer to store things and different amazingly smart ways to use this space. It’s starting to feel like home, which is good seeing as that’s what it’s going to be for the next few months before I head down to Utah.

All is fabulous here on the far northern front! But if someone has some sunshine in their part of the world and wants to send some this way we’d all really appreciate it up here!
