More Aloha!





Aloha (Cont'd)











Aloha

Wow. What a blessing... this year I won't be able to travel abroad over the summer, but I was fortunate in that I was able to go to Hawaii for a bit. Hawaii in January... not a bad plan for an Alaskan girl ;)

Snow Storm Jan.23: Teacher Housing

This video was taken on Jan 23, not 22 :) I went on a short walk to a friend's house in teacher housing. Due to the intense wind and storm, you may not be able to hear my voice-over. Enjoy!

Sun Bathing in January in Chevak

With Elder, Julia Cholok. She speaks very little English and I speak VERY little Cup'ik, yet we have so much laughter in our "conversations!" She's a doll.
 Sun bathing on my porch on a sunny Sunday afternoon.
 New teacher, Kelly, and her husband stop by for a visit. Nice addition to Chevak.
The view from my front porch. I just love moments like these... taking it all in...
