60 degrees North. The Arctic Circle. My home.

This blog chronicles 365 days above the Arctic Circle in Northwestern Alaska. From the cold dark days of January, to the 18 hour ice fishing days on the ocean, to the 24 hours of daylight and summer softball, to the crisp fall days gathering food and back to the cold, windy days of the hoidays. Enjoy!

Heat Wave

To ring in 2012, Mother Nature gave us temperatures hovering around -40 below zero.  And at that temperature, it doesn't matter if you're Fahrenheit or Celsius... it's all cold.  (but if you MUST know, we use F)

This year, we have enjoyed a massive heat wave.  It was 20 above zero (F).  Which means it was 60 degrees warmer when we watched our annual Fireworks show!



I'll take 60 degrees warmer anyday.  Kids are enjoying playing out with sweatshirts and snowpants.
