The volleyball team is undefeated! The next two weekends we travel and then we have Regionals in Unalakleet! Brevig Huskies only lost two games out of the 25 they played. I am excited to see how they do this weekend in Golovin. Go HUSKIES!
Just like anywhere else in the United States, Halloween is a big deal. The Friday before Halloween was a half day at school because after lunch students put on their costumes and then were involved in a parade where judges chose the best homemade costume, the scariest costume, and the most effort costume. My students were very excited about it all.
Living in the Bush means that one gives up some luxuries, like fresh produce. Well, Oregon has this great place called Full Circle Farms which ships up fresh produce to people in Alaska. This was the first week we ordered it and this is what we got! Carrots, kiwis, spinach, lettuce, apples, oranges, grapes, leeks, and celery. I am very excited about it!
Snow has finally fallen in Brevig. Apparently it is very much overdue. The temperature hovers around freezing but the wind is strong. I have been told its going to get much worst. It will be interesting to experience.
We took the puppies for a walk. However, the wind was so bad we didn't get very far. The dogs loved it, but my lip was numb from the wind, but I do love my new Parka. I didn't feel any wind on my upper body through my awesome parka!
This is what the beach looked like a couple months ago. The water is flowing and the rock filled beach is inviting.
Now the ocean looks like this. The water is freezing and the rocks are now slippery with ice.
The ocean is freezing but as it still freezes it moves to and from the coast. This will be one of the last parts of the ocean to freeze. It's crazy to think that the ocean is freezing.
The Tundra is freezing!
Planes land on runways of snow. The Bush Pilots are some in the best in the state, I am confident in their ability. It is an experience flying in a plane and taking off and landing on a runway of snow.
