Set up at #NovaAlbion, and I have the most wonderful of problems: more hats than display space. #hatteratlarge
TOMORROW: Gonna get in my car with my hats and drive and drive and drive until I run out of continent. Then: #NovaAlbion. See you there?
So, fossil brooches happened today. (Yes, these will be coming with me to #NovaAlbion.) http://flic.kr/p/ecrGYU
Five new hats, ready to travel west with me to #NovaAlbion. #QuickToTheHatCave http://flic.kr/p/ebDKkR
Apparently I am doing the whole Donner Pass thing again, because I have just booked a room for #NovaAlbion.
Unexpected genetics lecture is unexpected (but informative!) #NovaAlbion #WhatIsThisThingYouCallSocializing
Holy pogo sticks, 28 days until #NovaAlbion! You know what that means - nonstop Bjork marathon until my hands fall off or everything's ready
