Timelapse of sunset, moonrise and sunrise from Homer in Alaska.

Hike to the Grewingk Glacier in Kachemak Bay State Park. Inaccessible by car, so it's a boat ride from Homer to across the trail and pick you up at the other end. Lots of varied forest and then the glacier is incredible.

One way four mile trail from Savage Campground to Savage River in Denali National Park. There is a free shuttle bus back (and to the entrance area if no parking deeper in the park). This direction is 1,500 fet up and then 1,700 down with the descent in just a mile and a half. Fantastic variety of terrain and scenery.

Four mile out and back hike along the Toklat River in Denali National Park. No trails in this part of the park, just pick a direction and go. Until a bridge is repaired this is the last stop on the park road bus route.

Here's a simple Google Apps Script to monitor for new OpenAI models:

To get this running, paste into a new Apps Script project and enable the Gmail API under services. Add your email address and OpenAI API Key at the top. Run a couple of times and you should get an email with all the current models and then nothing the second time unless you get lucky. On Triggers set a scheduled execution with whatever frequency feels good (I use daily) and you're all set.
