Full moon at sunset hanging over the Northern Sky.
Senset to the South. We drove out the the dump for a nice view of the moon. I made zoey follow the truck for a bit so she could get a work out. Run Zoey Run.
Ashely in the deep snow.
Climbing up to a snow mound...
King, er Queen of the hill. I had to throw zoey down so I could be on top.
A scientist for the Univeristy of Alaska, Fairbanks is studying the permafrost. He has installed temperature data loggers at many of the villages throughout Alaska. I have been asked to monitor and download the data from our village. Here I am retriving the data logger from the frost tube. The data logger recorded a low of -20 degrees F last week. The ground temperature remains constant at 29 degrees about 1 meter down and about 32 degress .5 meters down. This is just one data point in a huge climate change study. It is nice to be a part of something bigger!
