New York’s Maine-Endwell beat South Korea, 2-1, to win the Little League World Series on Sunday, becoming the first US team to win the title since 2011 and the first team from New York to win since 1964.
I watched Alone in the Wilderness, Alone in the Wilderness Part 2, and Alaska: Silence & Solitude today. Dick Proenneke enlisted in the Navy after pearl Harbor and served as a carpenter. I've always been impressed with his cabin. Partly because I suck at wood working.
"Dick Proenneke spent his first summer in the Twin Lakes region scouting out the best cabin site and cutting logs. He returned the next summer to build his cabin, stayed through that winter and the next summer before he returned to Iowa for the winter. Dick hadn't planned on returning to Twin Lakes, but he changed his mind and returned the next spring and remained at Twin Lakes for 30 years, leaving only occasionally to visit his family."
