Background Information?
Hello!
I'm finally leaving Oklahoma State University in May! It's my last semester here and then I'll finish up school somewhere else. But the really neat thing is I'll be working at Glacier Bay National Park this summer. (Note the blog title)
http://www.nps.gov/glba/
It's a complete volunteer job. I'll be organizing the imaging system and helping out with anything that happens to need my help. I'll be taking bunches of photos for proof that I'm still alive, so you can check up on this blog just to make sure if you feel like it.
I'll be arriving in Gustavus sometime between May 10th-11th "if the weather's good and the plane doesn't break," as the pilot claims. I'm not sure how long I'll be there, probably until I get too cold. There aren't any roads to Gustavus, so each and every one of you are invited to visit if you can make it here. I want no excuses.
I've been lucky enough to see Alaska twice before. I visited most of the touristy spots of Alaska so this will be a true and tasty treat. I only have two worries so far, which is good. I'm a tad worried that a grizzly bear might want to nibble on my limbs (which I am opposed to) and my other worry, well, I'm concerned I might run out of food. We have to have our groceries air-mailed in every two weeks or so and as I've been told, "I've never see anybody eat so much before, except maybe in the movie Seven" (thank you, Serge). Basically I don't want to cause any plane to crash with my over-abundant supply of food. Other than that, I think things will be fantastic. Yep, I'm ready.
