The most circulated myth in Port Alsworth is that winter is the slow season. While there are no lodge guests, less flying, and drastically fewer hours of daylight, the world never seems to slow down for me. In the hangar, winter means project time. In the community, winter means busy school schedules, from sports practices to play rehearsals. Outside of that, regularly scheduled events like Ladies Bible Study, men's prayer breakfast, and AWANA occupy their usual time slot.
Since the sun sets around 5:30, I have taken to go into work a bit
early, and take an extra few minutes at lunch to enjoy some daylight.
And what better way to do that than with my new cross country skis?

Winter is quickly becoming my favorite season. There is something about getting bundled up, playing hard, and coming back in to warm up with a nice hot cup of tea, hot chocolate, or apple cider by the fire that makes it worthwhile. The long winter nights motivate me to enjoy the daylight I do get!
