Six ball about to drop

Well, seeing as how I already picked the one picture I would post tonight to represent this day but then went ahead and posted a third to announce the pending arrival of grandchild #4, I might as well go ahead and post this one I just now snapped and make it three for the day. I still have a significant task to accomplish before my midnight quitting time so, maybe if Squarespace doesn't act up too badly and my slow internet connection holds up, I can post all three and still accomplish all I need to accomplish. This is Makayla playing pool with two friends at the Kuukpik Hotel and that's Josette, hotel manager, watching. 

Number 4 has begun the journey

I've picked the picture I'm going to post tonight, but maybe I can get in two. I have an announcement to make concerning family far away and since none of them are nearby for me to photograph and no one can substitute for them, this mid-afternoon shot of the Kuukpik Hotel (left) seems like just the right photo to use. The family threw a double birthday party yesterday for Rex and Lisa. There, Rex and Cortney announced they are expecting. Grandchild Number 4 is on the way. I was not certain I should post the news but it's hopping around Facebook so I see no reason to keep quiet about it any longer. 

Logbook: Barrow to Nuiqsut, entry 3: The Daily School Bus - nap

We land in Nuiqsut where I find the The Daily School Bus parked at the Kuukpik Hotel. I am exhausted. I take a long nap. I was going to end the Logbook entry with some very cold looking pictures but to decided I would include The Daily School Bus instead. I do have some more pictures from Barrow to post yet, including a small series I shot last night that will be perfect to commemorate the personally important anniversaries of this day, ranging from as sad and tragic as sad and tragic can be to as happy and joyful as happy and joyful can be.
