The quaint town of Homer, Alaska (notice the lack of houses...):A moose off the back deck of the place I'm staying:

Here's a post from Homer, Alaska. This is the first evening that the internet connection has been working for the past two weeks. The government has blocked all interesting websites (like blogs and Facebook) at work, so I haven't gotten to post anything.

My boss gave me some roller ski poles last week, so I went skiing along the 3 mile bike path (back and forth a few times to turn it into an OD of sorts). Photographic evidence forthcoming....as soon as I find my camera cable.

The biggest hazards in Homer: moose and heroin. Hypodermic needles were discovered in one of the NOAA boats the other day, so they are worried that one of the interns will sit down on one and get AIDS. Also, I almost ran into a moose the other day while I was out biking. Some old lady was watching the incident and clearly thought I was a young hooligan.

Hoorah for summer training!!

Over and out.
