I know I've been absent since my last St. Paul trip and I apologize.  I'm just giving myself a much needed break.  I did take another trip to St. Paul in the beginning of this month and I'm now at home with my family.  I have a trip planned back to Atka on the second week of January and that's when I plan to continue blogging.  I want to wish everyone the Happiest of Holiday Seasons and thank you for enjoying my blog as much as I do.  I wish you all a healthy and prosperous New Year because that will be when I see you next.  See you in January 2006!
