Delayed posting

I wanted to do a write-up of my couple of weeks in Alaska, and it's best to do it right away so everything is fresh.

However, when I got back to my apartment and opened my laptop it looked like this:


It had been mishandled by the airline. The base by the power button is dented and separated, and the screen close to that point had shattered. I ordered a new screen and it arrived very quickly, but I didn't have the tiny screwdrivers needed to take it apart. Decided to wait until I got to St. Louis to perform the surgery.

So, in St. Louis was able to remove the old screen. Unfortunately the brackets on the new one don't align with the laptop so it's just balancing in place ... minor details. The laptop works and I can access my Alaska pictures now!
