I’ve been working on a major update to the Nuvuk catalog database structure, and the subsequent import and merging of data from 2 Access databases with about 18,000 records or so. Much keyboard & screen time involved, leaving my hands too sore to type more.
Anyway, that’s done, without disaster, and I’m typing again…
The first of the non-Barrow residents arrives on the evening plane. He’s coming up a bit early to help get ready for actual fieldwork. It looks like he may wind up in the hut next door, which will be handy, since we won’t get a truck assigned to the project for a week or so. The physical anthropologists won’t get here for a couple of weeks, since they can’t do a lot (except help dig) until we’re in the field & finding things. They’ve using the time in the lab instead.
Out of Ice and Time 
Do you have mostly new people or are some of the old crew going back?
A few more newbies than returning folks this time around, but it seems like a good group.
My flight is confirmed–I’ll be there on July 7th! Looking forward to seeing everyone again
Hey Jenny,
Morning or evening?
