Beauty of Barrow


Just happy as a clam in Barrow, AK! Mom, the hats were a great idea. Thank you so much for that trip to the Army Navy store. As it may appear, I had to make significant changes to my wardrobe since the D.R.! This hat has become my new best friend. Reed is still in the running (despite his brilliant idea to come to the north pole), but the hat has proved to be slightly more useful.
Barrow is great. It is flooded with character, ATVs, snow and ice. There is much more diversity here than I anticipated. About 60% of the population is Native (Inupiat) and 40% are a medley of white, Thai and Filipino. We have yet to interact with any natives, but that is why we are here for 17 more days!
