Taken at -20. Not bad!

January 2013


Above:  See the ice forming around the door?
Left:  This is a picture of our building and our unit.








We are driving on the Kuskokwim River, our ice road.






Some Random pictures:
Paul's Post
Alaska Airlines (if any question)



Above:  3 person snow machine for sale at our grocery store, Simon picked one out!!  
See all the outlets??  To plug your vehicle in of course!!


Can you see the hidden boat, above?  There is a lot of this.  Abandoned boats.  Yes, that's right, gas is $7.06.  .... We are always looking for survival methods....  Our bedroom, not very big.  I am lucky if I don't get a bruise walking by the bed... seriously..



The handcuff bench at Post

The Bentley B & B


We celebrated Simon's Birthday (the Avengers, Incredible Hunk) January 6th and Paul's on the 20th.  My wonderful neighbor made these cakes for me.  This is her hobby.  I think I know where I will be getting our cakes!


Here is the best I could do for a map of Bethel.  The villages, Paul is assigned to are circled, though he does get sent to the others as well.  We will be doing 2 overnights a week.  Some of these places don't have running water.  Which means they use honey buckets (basically a "potty" bucket) or an outhouse.


CAPTIONS TO COME....... 








 




 




 









Above & Left: The Yukon - Kuskokwim Delta HospitalDental & Vison part of the Hospital.  They only except 2 new appointments a day.  So waiting in line before they open is what is required to possibly get one of those appointments.  We have not experienced this, but friends have.  Also most Doctors work here for a few month rotation.  Pulling teeth instead of filling issues is a norm, so we have been told.
