Nali


Well Nali is making things way more complex out here.  To get her home for the summer she needs a health certificate from a vet.  Well guess what....there are no vets in the village and in Bethel the vet only comes out for 1 week out of the month.  Looks like we will be taking an extra flight to Bethel on May 10th as long as the weather is good.  What a fun way to use a personal day. jk. If we can't get in, I guess I will have to go to Anchorage :(  (We'll hope that doesn't happen)  No matter what Nali will be coming home with me.  The vet back in Indiana just did not understand how hard it would be to go to the vet.  Maybe I can explain when I get home so next year this doesn't happen again.

Dance







This is what I made for a class I am taking, but I thought everyone might enjoy it.  This was the Dance festival at Toksook Bay.  It was probably about a month ago.  I really enjoy watching the dancing or as they call it yuraq (hopefully I spelled that right).  The drum beat is very relaxing and there is always a lot of laughing.

Science Fair

Sorry it has been so long :(  I have been so busy.  Science fair was at the beginning of March, then there was a dance festival in Toksook, and finally a couple of weeks ago I took a trip to Anchorage.  It has been a whirlwind, but in a good way.  Here is a video that I made to show our school what our students did at the science fair.
