Second,
Here are some pics....

This is Unalakleet. Our first bush village. This was a great place to begin.

The plane in the dark late morning.

The sled that would be pulled behind a snow machine. A typical way we would ferry we things from the plane to the school and church.

Some scenery from Koyak.

We happened to bring four Apple laptops with us on our journey.

Me in the parka that Donna Erickson loaned to me while I was up here. She and her husband decided the coat that I brought wasn't warm enough. Donna (and so many women) make these parkas for thier families. It is so beautiful and warm! Thank you, Donna!

Bob speaking at the Koyak school assembly.

Nica (at about 11am, notice the darkness outside) with her much appreciated latte from Coal Creek Coffee in Koyak.

This is our team. From left to right: Jessica, Mark, Jenica, Bob, Craig, and Megan. Our two pilots from MARC are Greg and Bob. They are not pictured here, but I'll have to get one of them up sometime before its all said and done.
So, that is all for now.
I'll try to put up more pictures and stories. A lot of things are happening. But as you can imagine, there is a lot of sensitive information. We have been so blessed by being up here. This is a wonderful "people group." And wonderful specific people too!!
And I miss Charlotte.
And I can tell I'm very tired. I'm sorry this is so incoherent.
Ok. That's all for now.

Oh man. The picture of you in the skirted parka is amazing. I love hearing about what you're up to, and imagining Wes entertaining and taking care of Charlotte all by himself. It almost deserves its own blog...
That is one fancy-pants-i-mean-skirted-coat! It's 16 degrees out here, does that constitute wearing one of those coats? I feel like it does.
Thanks so much for the pictures and updates! Keep them coming, and I'm with Sarah--where's the wes and charlotte blog?
