Spent a lot of today doubting myself and some decisions. Probably not done with that for a while.
But I did get to see the Northern Lights for the first time (ever) just now, and that’s not nothing.
It got even bigger and brighter after this.

I finally got MB plates for my car this week, which I like b/c I felt very conspicuous in Winnipeg with NC plates. I hardly see out of province tags, much less American ones. Several strangers have remarked in parking lots about how “far from home” I am.
And this is who I pull in behind today.
