Took a trip to the cabin today. Needed to transfer fuel into the tank. Found the power off and couldn’t get a generator going. Victor Bay has mostly iced over. Arctic Bay a couple of days ago. About two weeks later than what I know as normal. Nice to get out, nearing the end of going by ATV as the temperature is dropping and although the trail isn’t bad that could change quickly. Almost time to park them for the winter. Sure is pretty out there. #CabinLife #Nunavut.

Turned out to be quite the day off. Somewhat unexpectedly we had a cruise ship. Leah’s cousin was one of the cultural interpreters on board and convinced the captain to make Arctic Bay a stop. So this morning we wee invited out to the boat with the cultural performers and others and had lunch. In the afternoon we took Leah’s cousin, the captain, the other cultural interpreter, and three other crew/expedition staff out to the cabin. We at maktaaq and bannock, drank tea, and visited. Late getting back because we were enjoying ourselves, but the ship wouldn’t leave without the captain. Turns out the captain is the cousin of a friend who over wintered here in their sailboat a few years back. #Nunavut

All that time, Nanook has been on the public housing waitlist, but she said she has never gone up more than third in her list in her community.
