Editor’s Note
Stephan: This will be the last SR until the 2nd of September. As longtime readers know I have been publishing SR seven days a week, 365 days a year since 1991, and have filed editions from a caravansary in Pakistan; underneath Red Square in Moscow; from underneath a tarpaulin in an open boat bobbing in Canadian waters off shore from a wifi hotspot on a remote island; leaning against a dumpster in the middle of a Native American reservation in a forest to name a few spots that come to mind as I write this. Except for rare occasions when something is wrong with the net where I am, SR publishes.
The one exception to this is when I am invited to crew on the Alisaz, a lovely 65-foot boat that cruises in Northern Canadian and Alaskan waters, when I have no access to the internet. Tomorrow I am flying to Ketchikan, Alaska to join Alisaz moored at the dock there, so I wish everyone a wonderful two weeks while I am gone. SR will resume when I return on the 2nd September.

Enjoy bliss
Enjoy your well deserved time off. Return rested and ready for the very interesting Fall we will be having.
Well deserved and enjoy!
Sounds wonderful! Hope you enjoy every minute!
Have a nice vacation Stephan. I would be happy to fill in for you if I knew how the whole procedure works. We do think alike.
Hi Stephan,
Enjoy this well deserved time to experience the high north. Know with absolute certainty, that you have a faithful following that appreciated the work you have done for this Eairth and the species that inhabit her domain. While perusing Alaskan articles I came across this one:
