The great Aurora viewing November 11, 2025

The busy streets of Nenana on a Tuesday afternoon at 3 PM. 3 vehicles parked.

Nenana Tripod is up for 2025!

Huge bowl of spicy beans, rice, and vegetables. SOS free. Eat cheap like a villager. 25 lbs of dried beans can be purchased for $20 to $30 and makes hundreds of servings in an Instapot. Other starches include ing sacks of potatoes, rice, oatmeal nearly as cheap as beans.

When the forecast is for -30 below good to have a hot fire to keep warm.

I believe in the Golden Rule, that it should be applied to people I don’t know, living in countries I have never visited, and to generations not yet born.

It’s time to buy some bulk food. A 50lbs sacks of beans, lentils, oatmeal, and rice provides for a lot of meals for little $ and shelf stable.

Contemplating the annual passing of one more trip around the sun.
