I've been gone so long I thought I'd never touch blogging again. So long that the kids are all grown and gone, some of them married, and Andrew and I spend our time traveling and enjoying life just the two of us. We live in the same house in Anchorage and he's built up his business in the decade since I've last written. I've taken up watercolor, oil painting, and urban sketching and play the harp while planning our next travel adventure.
In January my brother Luke took me camping above the Arctic Circle. We left Anchorage early Monday morning and drove north, passing Denali and following the pipeline to Nenana and then the Yukon River.
We camped for the night while wolves howled outside the tent and the northern lights blazed above us. In the morning there was a sun dog around the moon as we struck camp and drove 600 miles back to Anchorage. The video is on his YouTube channel

I never delete blogs from my reader, and SO happy to see your name pop up. What a fabulous experience.
I was happily shocked to see your link updated on my blog which I haven't updated since....2012ish. Good to read you again and happy things are going well :)

Huh! That's crazy to see your comments! I figured everyone had left. I kind of threw this stuff up just because it was a nice place to note it. Nice to hear from you!
Yay! Glad to have you back. Looks amazing.
I don't have a reader, so had no way of knowing you were posting again! I was looking up an old recipe on my blog, and came across a comment from you and thought, hmmm....wonder if Michelle has updated her blog in the last decade? And look! You have! Your camping trip looks amazing, and I love your water colors and your pictures of Great Britain!
Craziness! Haha! My son (28) is talking about doing some creative writing and I thought of the word Scribbit and told him I used to read a blog.... so I typed it in and there I see a face I recognize from watching the Outdoor Boys. Hi, everybody!
