NorthernEye: June 2010
http://northerneye.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
One perspective on life in a remote northern community. Wednesday, June 30, 2010. Long Days; 6-30-10. Last week was the summer solstice; the "longest" day of the year. Personally, I've had days that seemed much longer; felt like it, anyway. This morning my back is still. Complaining about yesterday's assortment of activities; crawling around on the ground, climbing ladders, etc. Half-century vertebrae seem as much like an assembly of disgruntled employees as they do a column of bones. Whatever. My firewo...

NorthernEye: September 2010
http://northerneye.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
One perspective on life in a remote northern community. Sunday, September 5, 2010. Village life is filled with many idiosyncrasie. S (if that is the correct word; right now I'll go with it 'cause I really don't have the time to look it up); the concept of "work", or "working" among them. Others will seek work every year during the summer season; usually in construction or firefighting. And then there are those who will only work if the right conditions exist. By "right conditions" I mean:. Jobs The last ...

NorthernEye: July 2010
http://northerneye.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
One perspective on life in a remote northern community. Sunday, July 4, 2010. This post will NOT be related to the 4th of July; in spite of last night's "fire cracker". They come in different shapes, sizes and colors. Some are young, eager and full of potential. Some are old, withered and wasting away. Some are attractive (for hands, at least). Some are bruised and battered, scarred and scabby. Some don't even possess all the digits they started out with. I know who has stubby fingers, who has long ones,...

NorthernEye: March 2010
http://northerneye.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
One perspective on life in a remote northern community. Wednesday, March 24, 2010. The Wind Blows."; 3-24-10. Spring in Alaska; a seasonal label liberally applied, more in reference to the page(s) of the calendar than to the weather itself. March, especially the second half, is the beginning of "Spring". Longer days, increasing intensity of sunlight, and, usually, warmer temperatures. Today I was thinking about Jesus' words to Nicodemas regarding wind; specifically the part about hearing. Spring wind alw...

NorthernEye: May 2010
http://northerneye.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
One perspective on life in a remote northern community. Sunday, May 30, 2010. Ignore the iceberg picture at the top /title page. The ice is long gone. The current spell of "hot" (70-80), dry weather, accompanied with the appropriate wildfire smoke, make the ice photo look quite refreshing. Entirely inaccurate, but refreshing. Last winter provided half the usual snowfall, so now the run-off is all gone and the river is low.way low! Once the pieces fit, the stanchions are lashed into place (this is where I...
