I've had this site up for 20 years. Many of those years have been the barest of up, but many more have been quite prolific. After Melissa asked me, "Why?" I switched to paper journalling instead of writing here, but haven't ever quite taken down the site. Mom doesn't visit here any more, and very few people do. Lots of crawlers and spammer visit, which is less that thrilling.
Still, 20 years is something. 20 years is a long, long time.
And yet, 20 years is a short time.
Around this time a year ago I was training for Vinson, heading south to Antarctica in a week.
Around two years ago I was on Antarctica with Denny, Randy, and Larry.
Around three years ago, Chase died.
Around four years ago, I went to Antarctica for the first time.
Around five years ago, I was still living in Canada.
Around ten years ago, I left working at Twitter.
Around 11 years ago, Bella died.
Around 14 years ago, I met Jonathan.
