Sunday in Noorvik


Closing time?


Village church

Anyone for ice skating?

A library floor never felt so good. Walking through the village this morning I met a few people but most of the village was traveling back from the state basketball championships in Anchorage. One small difference between rural and town is the lack of signage (hrs open, store name etc). Makes sense that everyone would know when the store was open and why advertise there's no competition.

Tumi and I attended the local church services which was held in English and Inupiaq.
Afterword I took a long walk on the river and found the old air strip, abandoned due to erosion and waved at >20 folks on snow-gos.

School starts tomorrow and I'm looking forward to meeting all the staff and students.
