True story: as a result of recent upgrades + replacements to aging joints the short jaunt down from the driveway to the cabin needs constant grooming so as to stave off any accidents. Domestication has its advantages, and trips to Lowes for the ubiquitous bags of gravel which double as ballast on our icy roads.
Alaska is the land of practicality, and combined with proverbial farmer's daughter sensibilities, romantic gestures like roses and chocolates aren't anywhere near as useful as a bucket of grit.
Also being a day late on the card (and subsequent blog post) is easily overlooked as long as you literally dig your way out with a sturdy shovel.
