Dec. 2nd, 2025 04:51 pmMendenhall Glacier in Juneau has officially receded from Mendenhall Lake

So sad!! Poor glacier. :( I know it's part of the earth's natural cycle (we're coming out of an ice age still), but it's still sad. I'm glad I was able to see it before it receded. Here's a picture from 2019:

That was fun! I'm glad there are still some advancing glaciers like Meares..I'll probably cry if I hear that one starts retreating!
Speaking of crying..for the apartment complex I live in, I have to do a "recertification," where I have to tell them my income and stuff like that (it's online now, yay!). I noticed it still had Abby as my pet, so with a heavy heart I pressed delete, and a box came up that said something like "do you want to delete your pet Abby from the form?" OMG. πΏπΏ They definitely need to reword that, ouch!! I felt like I had been punched, my grief reawakened, and cried after I went to bed. So painful! I will always miss her, she was amazing <3
The snow is here, but by Friday it's supposed to get to -19. D: Alaska's weather seems to enjoy being extreme LOL
Nope
