SherriNow I am in a most wonderful cabin about six miles outside of Fairbanks. I knew it would be special from the pictures I saw online as well as from all the raving Airbnb reviews. And it is and it deserves further praise, but let me start at the beginning of the day.

SherriNestling in the cabin after another day in the cold is a most inviting experience. We have this theme going on in the temperate regions, but it’s more pronounced this far north. The outside is colder, the inside is warmer, and the people are more extreme as well.
We woke up late because it was still dark and also,

SherriIt’s amazing how wiped out we are, but I guess a day of hiking, getting cold, and soaking in 104 degree water can do that to you. I sat back at the cabin we’ve been calling home for a few nights, remarking how much living I fit into five hours today.

SherriI was itching for some yoga, Dan was not quite itching as strongly as me, but he was a willing participant. I found a place online called Heartstream Yoga and Donna’s bio looked varied and eclectic and so it was a go. The studio was located near the Fred Meyer’s and off we went.

SherriI am back in Eugene and in a relative sense, sweating like a pig, since it’s 40 degrees here.
Yesterday we woke up early and cleaned the cabin and got ready to roll out to the Yukon Quest, the annual 1,000 international sled dog race.

SherriI am sitting in an apartment in the Marais, a district in Paris which a long time ago used to be a swamp (the translation of the word “marais”). More recently it was the Jewish district and today is an eclectic mix of people in what is considered an artistic and gentrified part of the city.
…
SherriToday is cooler, I can tell, simply by the open window in the kitchen and the cool air drifting in through it. Yesterday was a very full day and I hope I can recall all the details, before they blend together, like a nice creamy soup on a cool, autumn day.
…
SherriIt’s a rainy afternoon in Paris, or perhaps I should say, it’s a dumping cats and dogs afternoon in Paris. After what has been a series of comedy of errors for the first half of the day, I am taking a bit of a reprieve. I am sitting here enjoying a cup of tea and doing some blogging.
…
SherriNow I am on the train to Lyon – my days in Paris seemed to fly by. I am happy we set things up to have a dose of Paris at both the beginning and the end of the trip. There is never enough time to do Paris.
While I am focused on what’s ahead and am enjoying occasionally glancing out the window and seeing rolling hills,
