Yukon ho!

Looks like my sister and I will be doing this trip on our own after all. It's too bad because it would have been fun to go with some new neato people, but on the other hand, I know she and I will have a blast.

She is mostly no-nonsense, like me, but we both agree that a little nonsense is also fine.

Exhibit A: we have decided that shaving our legs while out in the bush will be on the agenda. I don't mind hairy legs, neither does she, but during the growing-out phase it is so prickly and tickly that I can't sleep.

Add "shaving calves and bikini line" to the list of possible uses for the two pounds of beef shivs that I am packing.
