The contract was promptly emailed to my current email account and I was able to have a brief conversation about logistics before being interrupted by a piercing alarm and a smog of smoke. The saying stands true, where there’s smoke, there’s fire and in my case the microwave was taking a beating. Fortunately for me my contract was already agreed upon. No turning back for either party.

The contract (above)…. followed by smoldering excitement (below). Six firemen joined in the fun.


All said and done, this next year I am planning on embarking on an incredible adventure of challenge and growth and learning in a small village known as St. Michael on an island up north in the Bering Straight of Alaska.

Just look for the yellow tack. That is my soon-to-be home. I’ll put up a better photo later in life.
