Hello from Whitehorse!

Ten hours of flights later, I made it to Yukon in one piece. That last sentence was mostly for my mother, who sent me a pretty upset email about not calling her or answering my phone when I arrived. While they do have cell phones here, mine doesn’t work at all, so friends—please do email me.
Anyway, today was my first full day in the territory. I went for breakfast with some campaign folks, did a few hours of labour at the party office, went to a cabin on a lake, ate caribou and saw a fox. If you know me, you know that this is basically the best case scenario.
It is incredibly beautiful here in a way I’m not really sure yet how to describe, so please accept this photograph in lieu of 1000 words:
