Toenail is Gone
My toenail lasted the trip in the ADK. I had a band-aid and lots of duct tape wrapped around it. Once home and everything was removed after a shower, it finally came off. yay – b

It’s Not All About Dirt

Winter Mode
Got the snow tires on and borrowed a giant rooftop box (21 cubic feet) in preparation for the upcoming ADK back-country cabin trip. Should be skiing too soon. – b
