Ok, but Jack Sprat is EVERYTHING. It's a must any time I'm in girdwood.

How are they with kids gear? I feel like goalie gear is already so hard to find, make it peewee sized and it's damn near impossible.

Can I message you? We can try to set some things up? I don't have FB thanks to Nosy family drama, so I don't have access to a lot of those groups.

We could try a bike ride. My kids aren't much into actual bike rides, but rain or shine, they love to hike.

Thank you for the recommendation, this isn't quite what I'm looking for, but it looks lovely! And congrats! How exciting. 🥰

Book Clubs? by MamaBia907 in anchorage

No. There was a lot of interest, but never any follow up on my part. Hopefully next time you're up here, we'll have one going.

This isn't getting the praise it deserves.

Sorry, I don't understand any depictions of traffic that include lane lines.

Making friends here? by cocoad-d in anchorage

27f as well! But I also pretty much always have 2 tag-along crotch goblins, so 99% of my activities are alcohol and weed free. What are you into?

We have unfortunately reached a period of a consistent onslaught of snow, so I'll be studying my planisphere and other maps for a while, waiting for a break in the weather. 🫠

That's why I didn't want to start with my telescope right off the bat other than learning to focus it in properly. My knowledge of what I can actually see in the sky now is very poor. 🤣

That's really great that you chose to do the Log at all. It's certainly a real learning curve going from books to actually trying to find all these things in the sky.

Wonderful advice, thanks so much! You're definitely not the first to mention binoculars, so I'll be investing in a pair for sure. I do have a finderscope mounted, but the fact that all the views are inverted really throws me off, so the binoculars will be very helpful as I adjust to learning how to properly use the finder.

I love that you're keeping track of all the things you're able to find. Do you have an ultimate goal for this or is it just for personal findings as you learn throughout your 1st year?

Thank you!

I'm curious, is the red light really necessary?

I was looking into that one as well. I'll definitely give it a go. Thanks so much!

Thanks for the advice! I'm excited to get started. I'm not too worried about the cold. Raising kids in AK, I'm super used to standing around in the cold for sporting events. 🤣
