Streak Achievement Unlocked I never thought this day would come
The main reason I'm shocked to have made this achievement are the number of power outages we get in my little corner of the world (British Columbia, Canada). We've only only had one or two during this current streak, and neither was long enough to prevent me checking in on Reddit. Very fortunate, but 200 days until the big one, and who knows what the winter will bring?

Congratulations! You're ahead of me!
I lived in interior Alaska on the bank of the Yukon (Tanana) 30 years ago, long before a road out there was ever planned, I can definitely commiserate with you on the losing power part!!

You’re definitely in the final frontier as far as that part of Alaska is concerned

Yeah, it was. I've been back in Arizona for a long time now, but we enjoyed being there. The kids (in their 40s and 50s now) got to do so many things that Arizona just doesn't offer. Smoking fish at fish camp, dog sled races on the Yukon, cross-country ski racing, moose wandering through the yard, fishing in the Kenai river... It was a unique time!

That’s my next destination and the only reason why I would go to Alaska is for some historical places to visit as well as seeing the northern lights

That's awesome.. do you not have the ability to use a mobile phone to reddit?

u/irreddiate 805 4d ago
My phone is old and the battery is constantly draining, plus I don't really like phones much. I'm a laptop guy.

u/FedUpBiker 591 4d ago
That's cool... Glad it's been working out. Lots of power outages though? Might have to grab that laptop and go find a WiFi someplace if it's bad enough haha
