Well this week it was nice and warm, well maybe that is stretching it a bit. It was decent, but I am still wearing my winter jacket. So this afternoon I went for a nice long walk around town, I was going to wait until the wind died down a bit. However I haven't been since last Sunday, so I thought that I had better get out and get some fresh air.
Off I went the snow is finally receding, and some of the water that you see in the picture is not open water. It is more like huge puddles in the lower area's. From what I have been told there is still almost 4-5 ft of ice on the lakes, and ocean where people are fishing, but the ocean is starting to crack up, and apparently these cracks are the best place to fish. I would think that they are a little dangerous, but the ice is still really thick. And really they are only open about 6"-8" not like you can fall in.
The other day, I started thinking... Did it ever hurt, just kidding.Lol. But I have had alot of really different jobs in my time here on this planet. When I think back to highschool, and what I thought I wanted, or what direction I thought that my life was going to go. I am pretty sure that I am not even remotely close to that. I have thought before about coming up here, but I really feel at home here. The cold is something that you just kinda get used to. But what I am really having trouble with is the 24 hours of light. Try to sleep during the day is pretty much the same thing. Last night around 11:00 pm it got really cloudy, it was great. I fell right asleep. First night I haven't had a gravol. In the store there is a small pharmacy, but no sleep aids. I hope that my body gets used to it soon.
So while I was out on my walk, there was these two guys walking the opposite way as I was going. I should say 1 was walking the other was so drunk that he could hardly stand up. The one guy said that his name was Fats, after he spoke I could tell he was in the same condition.They pulled out a 60 oz bottle of vodka and took a big mouthful right there in front of me in the middle of the street. Well it is the middle of nowhere. I declined the offer they gave me and slowly made my way home. I honestly did take a bunch of pics but cant get them uploaded right now. The one that I really like is the one of the sic sic, looks like a chipmunk on steroids. I will try and post those pictures later.
