I am going to St Mary's August 23-29. It is funny because neither my lab manager or I knew I was going until Thursday! I said months ago I could cover if needed, but then I heard nothing and I actually thought the lab tech from Emmonuk was going. Then one of the big bosses sent an email conforming the trip! So cool for me. I am gathering as much flying segments as possible to help pay for my vacation travels from here to Anchorage.
I was talking to an elder the other day as she was impressed because I knew about the medicinal properties of tundra tea. I knew what it is used for traditionally. So we had a nice chat about plants.
