thawed blog
INUVIK, NT
What's this?! A blog posting?
Why yes! And only 284 days after the last one. Some people wouldn't bother. Some people would say that I might as well try to rescucitate Ted Williams. But I have never been one to listen to some people.
Part of the reason for my blogospheric hiatus is that this is my second year in the Arctic, and many of the novel and exciting adventures of last year are now pedestrian and dull. I mean, the first time you pull a fish out of your ice hole, you're thinking, 'Wow, yeah, this is great!" But the second time you pull a... no, wait, I've still only caught one fish. You get the idea, though. So this posting doesn't have much of a narrative. It's just some unrelated photographs, though I think they're all nicely evocative of the Arctic.
Dude, I think I see a reindeer.
Yup, definitely a reindeer.
Evil snowmachines. Nice landscape.
Without these lovely symbiotes, there wouldn't be much of anything alive up here. (I can think of at least three people who will really like this photograph, for those of you who are wondering.)
Up next is hopefully a June fishing trip, and then Big River Adventure II sometime in the summer (river as yet undecided.)
Take good care.
