Whale

Coffee break and for snack is whale blubber...

They have caught some whale and eveyone in town was getting pieces of it. It is very popular, eaten raw..The weather here today was hot hot..On my temp outside my window it said 30' c mind you that is against the house facing the south. It really should be out of the direct sun, but I wanted to read it in the winter without going outside. I walked home after work with a shoulder of Caribou and a fish, I was sweating so much much by the time I got home..

I maybe heading back to Kugaaruk in a week or so.. It is the home of the Nar Whale, so maybe I will get to see one..

It is light out 24 hours, so kids come out to play around midnight and they play out all night, and sleep all day. They keep playing under our house first on the ice then in the water. It was very noisy and we were having problems sleeping. They would yell and scream and cry.. Sometimes at 2 am I would go out and tell them not to play there cause of the wires it was unsafe. They really did care and would still play. So one night i went out and showed them the septic and said there is poo poo under there, well they could not get out fast enough... The next night there were different kids playing so Reza went out and was saying poo poo, I could hear the kids saying what, he would repeat poo poo...I'm sure all the neighbours heard him saying we have poo poo, so we have not had a kid near our place in a few weeks... blessed sleep..

Have a great weekend All!

  3. Poo Poo card has worked very well so far. Ya I am sure the neighbors talk about our poopoo. All the houses are up on stilts some higher than others. The houses are up becasue of the perma frost, otherwise they would sink. Our house is just up very high, and we had alot of water uder that was frozen like a skating rink. We are part of a 5 plex, so they area is pretty big. There houses across the street are too rocky and there are dogs on the other side. The siren went off last night at 10 for the curfew for all the kids to go home. woohoo they are back to school for the kids here!
