Getting Care Packages

I mentioned in an earlier update that we get supplies and mail delivered by a reindeer-drawn sleigh (it’s actually what we call a “sleigh-130�). It makes a weekly trip from POLARCOM headquarters in the Arctic to the airfield at Tallil.

Today I got mail! (It is one of the last shipments we'll be getting since we're heading home soon!) Blitzen, the loadmaster for the sleigh-130, brought it over to me.

Hooray for cookies!

Oh, goody! It really IS cookies!
Dontcha hate it when the box says it's something really great, but it's just the box with something totally different in it?
Soldiers need cookies.
Goody for you!

The kids and I are so happy to hear that you will be going home soon! Although we hope you will still post your stateside adventures...
