Spotacus has given us a few scares, but he's settling down nicely. Meanwhile, we've added a few more items to the checklist. At the moment, he's sitting in the step well, looking out the screen door, showing no interest in actually going out.

I stumbled over something this afternoon.

Tall Friend decided that he's too old to be sitting in a van for nearly 18 hours, so their planned trip to ride up to the Arctic Circle, take a couple photos, and ride back isn't going to happen. Yesterday's 13-hour trip to the end of Denali Park Road and back in an old school bus convinced him.

Nice little jaunts that don't involve the entire day and part of the night. I don't like leaving Spotacus alone for that long. He's been very good alone, but still...
Off for a walk down to the river. Later, y'all.
