This is a blog about my life moving to Kotlik, Alaska from Las Vegas, Nevada to teach. I have gone from a huge, urban area to an isolated village in the middle of the tundra. The move is from one extreme to another!

Over 100 Degrees!
It's amazing just how a few degrees can make such a huge difference in my comfort level. I do not like being in 90 degree heat but the difference between 100 degrees and 105 degrees will take your breath away! Just walking from your car to your door in 105 degrees is like being punched in the stomach and melting all at the same time. I grew up in Las Vegas and never grew accustom to the heat. It is simply unbearable! My advice for anyone visiting Las Vegas in the summer is to stay inside as much as possible. Or spend a lot of time in a pool.

In Vegas for Summer
This summer has been an adventure on its own. We came back to Las Vegas for the summer to spend time with family and give birth to the newest addition to our family. I am due in the beginning of September and will have a long, hot summer. When we left Kotlik in May it was around 30 degrees F and when we arrived in Las Vegas it was around 100 degrees F. I can't wait until the weather cools down but I know it is a long ways away! I will definitely be posting more as summer progresses. Sorry I haven't been posting as often this year as I should have. I will stay on top of the postings more!
