Karma

See look what I did- i wrote about all these options yesterday and what happens... everyone calls today, while I was freezing my ass off on a speedboat. Neil with the crew lead job in Ely, the Forest Service in Anchorage wanting to talk about the inventory position. Ahhh.

So the question is (I'm giving myself 48 hours)

Nevada:

Or Anchorage:
The desert: On the down side, it's hot, steep, burn-up, and I'd have to live in my honda again. On the up-side, there's great stargazing, people I like, long weekends to play all over the region, and a crew lead spot.


Or the frozen north: It could be perfect, 65 and sun-shine (alaska 1.0) or freezing rainy and buggy as hell (alaska 2.0). I'd get days off in anchorage, play ultimate, buy food or see movies (oh man- the Bear Tooth...), tons of sunshine, sleeplessness, a chance to work for a new agency, get paid through the fall, learn some new plants, maybe not like the people or the protocol....ahhh...I still need to talk to the PI, before I can really even do this...

(Yes- that is me, in my head-net, exclaiming over our discovery of maybe the world's largest ground-squirell midden. )

So VOTE. VOTE now!!! I might not listen to you, but your input is still welcome! 48 hours on the clock....

despite my obvious bias, the choice is clear, my friend.... the moose and bears and otters and whales and eagles and hoary marmots and i all agree: COME BACK TO A L A S K A !
