It’s a Kona kind of a thing.

It rained a little last night and has been cloudy all day. And, in Kona that is about as good as the weather can be. I do feel a little sorry for our visitors. But, it is lovely, cool (78°) and breezy. 

Think I have the Aurora Adventure Before Alzeheimers sorted out.

• Feb 24 or 25 Fly from Kona to Fairbanks.
• Figure out what to do once in Fairbanks
• Mar 1 Train from Fairbanks to Anchorage
• Mar4 Fly from Anchorage to Seattle
• Mar 4 Train it from Seattle to DC.
• Mar 7 Metro and bus back to the Asylum.

Nevermind that according to Alexa at this instant it is 0° in Fairbank and -16° is the forecast low. Oh and did I mention that I have zero winter clothes. But I don’t have any at the Asylum either.  Fairbanks has an REI, and a couple of thrift shops. 

Hey, I am not getting any younger. If not now, when???
