The rural gateway communities to the large and famous national park I used to work in are decidedly republican and no doubt voted for this regime. While it breaks my heart to see this happen, it is difficult to garner sympathy for what seems likely to happen.

So blessed to be able to spend a stunningly beautiful day in Sitka! One of my favorite places on the planet and I get to come here for work. The approach last night was a little sporty, but Sitka is worth the price of admission.
