Brilliant story, Elise. It makes me want to take a midnight walk, albeit with the proper Winter attire. And I love that Alaskans use the term “snowmachine” as a verb. Guess it makes sense.

Nice Elise. There is so much that is obvious behind your words. At least for another accustomed to life in Alaska. Kudos.
