You don’t seem to be in much danger of boredom at the moment

Congratulations with this too, and I hope the move goes well.

Congratulations on “new” addition and “job”. Hope all goes smoothly with transfer North and West - sounds absolutely fantastic.

Congratulations, Doug! An interesting job with room to grow, in a place you like… sounds like you have reason to be “pleased at every turn.” Take care, settle in, and keep your ink warm.

For us non-canadian folks, here’s a link to a Google map of Yellowknife.

Damn, that’s remote. Congratulations! It sounds like you’ll really enjoy it.

Thanks for the Google map of Yellowknife. Looking at the satelite view, I search for outdoor pools and wasn’t able to find a single one. I’m wondering why…

My man, a hearty congratulations and we look forward to seeing not only your own photographic exploits as you go on your mammoth walks, trusty hound at your side, but also from Jen who will revel no doubt in the fantastic light and mood-lit opportunities. Love, again, to you all.

[…] This may be the last blog post I can write for a little while, since we’re about to pack up the computers. This is a season for changes. Doug has accepted a job in Yellowknife, and we are preparing to move across the country. I’m looking forward to a lot of things, but having the chance to paint the Aurora Borealis is definitely one of them. […]

Good move! We lived in Northern BC for 11 years. The North is a great place to bring up family and make lifelong friends. You will meet the most genuine of people. As for the cold, well 40 below is unpleasant, but 50 below with the wind just plain hurts. Get a goose down parka with real fur (remains flexible at any temperature), the Bay used to sell those Klondike parkas, and mukuluks. And make sure you tell us all of those neat stories!
