Just a quick update. Stephen & I are enjoying Alaska. He is finishing up his degree in Business Marketing w/ some online courses from Utah State while substituting as a teacher in the high school. I am working at the Ilisagvik College as Student Retention Officer. We live in the small village of Barrow dubbed the "top of the world" on the ocean shore. The native Inupiat people begin whaling season next week before the ice moves in. Only one polar bear entered town this summer, but we did not see it. There are also snowy owls, walrus, seal, and caribou. The tundra is beautiful as the grass changes colors of green, orange and red. The sun has not set all summer, but we are beginning to get a couple hours of partial darkness in the middle of the night now. Eventually, it will be completely dark for the winter. It is an amazing place. We will miss attending the mission reunion this year, but look forward to returning to the Salt Lake area in a year's time. |
