Spring is a cruel, fickle little lady who is having a very good laugh at my expense. All the sunshine and warm temperatures (it was above freezing) had me certain she was well on her way to Nanwalek, but now I know she had been conspiring with Jack Frost and Old Man Winter to tease and torment me. The sky began pouring snow down on us Saturday morning and has only paused to catch a quick nap a few times. We had to wait until one of these naps Monday morning to fly back into the village. Apparently it was a very good nap as only a single plane made it in yesterday and I'm feeling pretty certain today qualified for the title "white-out". Our boys basketball team was supposed to fly out this morning for regionals but that didn't quite work out for them and it doesn't look like it will let up any time soon. The forecast is showing snow for the next 9 days so I'm thinking winter isn't relinquishing its hold on our area any time soon.

Road signs - we just make it up as
we go on days like this |

We had to wait for this little moose to quit
investigating the truck so we could go |

If you look close, you'll see cars under
the piles of snow |
