Miscellaneous
Kathrin Koslicki didn’t come
to the conference this year because she was on a motorcycle trip. But her trip involved
taking the ferry to Alaska, which meant that she passed through Bellingham
anyway. Later, Kathrin sent a text-and-photo report of her trip, in three
installments: Alaska
Report1, Alaska
Report 2, Alaska
Report 3. I thought other BSPCers might find it interesting.
