Hey There! Derek here-
We have been staying warm, drinking tea, playing with Luna, and reading plenty.
I thought everybody would like to see Lacy and I outside in the weather, High twenties and super windy. Snowing more and more everyday. The whales are incredibly close to shore, and sea lions are following them around. Everybody is going after the sardines or the plankton; I swear it’s all right out of Planet Earth. I use my best David Attenborough when we watch all the animals feasting. This happens thirty feet from the beach.
Thanks For the Packages! Mom and Dad –Gries and Mom and Dad Buck.
We love them, everybody was jealous of our pumpkin (it tastes great). And our Buck snacks keep us happy when we get home.

Awesome whale video! We are standing just off shore, the water gets so deep super quickly...
Random Question- Why don’t crows get cold? We have massive crows here; apparently they stay all year too. Don’t they get cold!?

And I thought I was cold... I guess I can't complain since it is only 43 degrees in Portland.
ReplyDeleteThanks for keeping your blog so up-to-date. I really enjoy reading about Gambell and the community you are a part of there. I am taking some inter-cultural classes for the ESL endorsement and I keep thinking about you guys and the amazing work you are doing. I am also happy to see that Luna is doing well! If there is ever anything you need for her (flea drops etc.) let me know. I might be able to get it cheap through Jarod's work and send it to you.
