7/25 good morning

Excellent night of sleep. I'm trying a new system, I put on a blindfold and it seems to make a big difference. I have very short day planed today. I'm going to the North Pole. It's only about 200 miles from here, so it's like costing down hill. I'll be looking up some friends of my moms, and am hoping for my first home cooked meal in a long time.
My plans my have changed a bit. I am at the very end of the two weeks of summer. Before I left people told me this, and I thought it was a nice funny thing to say about Alaska. Turns ot there is some truth to it. Up at Deadhourse winter is already arriving. One day it could be nice, the next a mess. So my new plan my include a boat ride along the inside passage. It's a trip that takes 3 days and drops me back in the USA. I was thinking about it before I left, but was told it was $1600+ and that was to much for my budget. But now that I'm here I'm hearing that it may only be $450 or so, and that might fit in my finances.
With that I have finished my $13.00 french toast and am headed back to pack up camp.
