Hi Nick!!

I loved your Independence Day journal!! Sounds like we both had very "different" Independence Days than we're used to -guess that's life in the Arctic Circle! And to say you're a "dedicated fan of the band Phish" is a total understatement and you know it!!

I'm thrilled and impressed to see that you have two PolarConnect events coming up!!! I've asked my researcher if there's time for me to log in and catch your Monday one for teachers!

Hey! I liked your journal too. I am reading "The Whale and the Supercomputer." It makes me want to go to Barrow. You had a great journal entry, sounds like your 4th was a lot of fun too. It has to be great to experience the culture in addition to the science! I hope you can make it to the Polar Connect on Monday. I'm uploading my slides as we speak. Have fun up there (your one of the few people I can say "up there" to right now)!
