Soo jealous. Haven't seen a flake yet this year. It's been raining and really windy here all day.

Bet your husband enjoyed his "snow day", huh? Good Morning Bedazzle peeps!
Bukket, I don't mind the snow, but hate the wind and freezing temps that usually come with it this time of year! Having a White Christmas is about the only time I enjoy having snow...the rest of the time I would be perfectly happy with 70 degree temps...LOL!!Bet your husband enjoyed his "snow day", huh?

I bet the wind would be bad if you had to go out in it. Being a homebody I get to look at it. What temp do you usually have when it snows? Everyone always thinks Alaska has it the worst but we have nice snow. It is usually between 20 to 30 degrees outside. Plus we don't get a whole lot of snow. There are parts that get it worse but they are less populated.
He sure did. That's the first time he's ever had a snow day but he switched to a new position last year so he is at a different camp and he has to drive between warehouses. His first position was a short walk outside to the warehouse counter from the main camp. I don't know why they call it a camp. The main ones have movie theaters, swimming pools, and workout rooms.
In between he was working on an island and I am so glad he switched jobs. He had to take a helicopter in the winter until it froze enough to make an ice road or a boat in the summer to get there. It was like an oil rig out in the ocean but built on a small island. They had to be completely suited up in survival gear for the trip. He loved working there since the warehouse was small and he was the only one there. But he hated the fact that the closest bathroom to his room was 3 floors down! Now he has a room with a private bath. But it is a contracted out camp and they have a room that has internet access but they cut off all internet access in the rooms to save money. We got a MiFi from our cable tv provider so he can play games and use his iPad in his room. He can't even call out from the phone in his room! He has to text me so I can call him.
He hates being away for 2 weeks but loves being off 2 weeks so it evens out and he likes his job. He just worries about leaving me home. And now you guys probably know more than you ever wanted to about working on the North Slope. I must've woke up gabby. Don't want to call mom yet since she plays World of Warcraft every afternoon.![]()
Pretty sure 23 hours of daylight is in the Summer, as here in Western Washington Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year. This time of year Bukket is probably getting very little daylight, as here the sun doesn't come up until 7:00am and is down by 5:00pmBukket5 thanks for sharing. Sounds really neat to me. An Island, helicopter, camps and Alaska! What more could you ask for.
Two questions. How far is the nearest grocery store and when do you have 23 hours of day light?
