I am headed to Barrow AK in a couple of weeks for a 13-26 week gig at the hospital there. It services and area about the size of WA state. I will be basically starting up a Microbiology lab for them. It should be a lot of fun but I will have to go dig out a lot of my Army cold weather gear. It is currently 35º in Barrow. It is the northernmost city in the US, about 150 miles north of the Artic Circle

Man I HATE cold weather which is why I live in FL. Man, what the heck am I thinking! But the money is more than double what I am making now.

On the other side, I can only imagine the photographic possibilities up there.

Good luck and stay warm. Looking forward to viewing your pics.

Here it is, July 10th. The temperature in Barrow today is 36º. We don't usually see temperatures here that cold for this time of day in the dead of winter. It is going to be an adventure!!!!

I'm jealous that you're going to AK, but not because your going to Barrow. Brrrrrr

Alaska is on my bucket list. Would love to take a drive from Juneau to Anchorage.

I am beginning to wonder what I have gotten myself into! :)
