Yakutat is weighing in at 1F.<br/><br/>Cold for the next few days and then, on Christmas Day, snow!<br/><br/>If snow comes to pass, John and I have vowed to go walk in Totem Park and take pics of the wonder.<br/><br/>#MyAlaskaWx #akwx #Sitka #Alaska 2025-12-22T14:58:45Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvp9trdf9mjuju689rgvxgf96lwedjufqpgnshj23684qudlvszuczyqpkkd7ne8zp95dal4q0u4fk5a5w94nlvlepyzk25cq2s9m6cupzwr0f0ej In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9r7acg47uqcng35rvz5cd9jx75jvnhm9jyqx4gda6ydt2sc3u0nqezqxkz'>nevent1q…qxkz</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Awesome! 2025-12-21T23:04:31Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs22h2tvjs08wede74x2wg92gg09tnvhrygzdaw3pf97zcrz5m4nyszyqpkkd7ne8zp95dal4q0u4fk5a5w94nlvlepyzk25cq2s9m6cupzw3zd3eg I&#39;ve been telling my partner about having a Yule log that we could save year to year. (It&#39;s a good option without a fireplace.) He was enchanted and made me one today!<br/><br/>I had one years ago, but it was another casualty of moving up here to AK. <br/><br/>I love my new one and it was a great Yuletide present!<br/><br/>#Yule #yulelog #solstice #pagan<br/> <img src="https://alaskansocial.files.fedi.monster/media_attachments/files/115/759/844/230/668/127/original/2ebb46958414f703.jpg"> <br/> 2025-12-21T22:15:00Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsqxfk369g77cqsggg0ags5ry8w774j9qac7tgzu8rjnsr8pe3d46szyqpkkd7ne8zp95dal4q0u4fk5a5w94nlvlepyzk25cq2s9m6cupzw4qm3ke 6:15AM: 17F, fair.<br/><br/>It was pretty much 17F all day &amp; all night.<br/><br/>We ventured out to the Holiday Brass concert at the Sitka Performing Arts Center (the PAC.) Saw great performances and great friends.<br/><br/>I also clapped. A lot. Something they really don&#39;t tell you about NOT doing after a shoulder replacement.<br/><br/>I&#39;m telling you now: NO repeated percussive movement 2 months after surgery. It didn&#39;t hurt at the time, but now...OUCH!<br/><br/>#MyAlaskaWx #akwx #Sitka #Alaska 2025-12-21T15:18:43Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsz3hgmn5tsw8jth2efy0sav6rzvmv2fx7etwuzf08rnxjz8a9z5sczyqpkkd7ne8zp95dal4q0u4fk5a5w94nlvlepyzk25cq2s9m6cupzwuy74f6 I&#39;ve posted this before, but it&#39;s a fitting pic with the Solstice so close.
