Fort Albany, Saturday May 12, 2012

It got up to over 20 degrees today so everyone was in a very social mood. Tonight there are a couple different get-togethers organized by the teachers. It seems to be generally divided by gender, with the men watching 'the game' at one end and the ladies enjoying a bon fire at the other end.
Excitement levels have stayed pretty much on par this week. An actual Professional Developement day was held for all primary teachers on Monday, job offers for next year were delivered the same afternoon, and the Mother's Day assembly was held Friday afternoon.

There does however seem to be a growing problem of intentional fires in town. The worst side effects I've seen so far is a very singed-looking dog running around.

This weekend I finally worked out the final details of a picture I've been working on for quite a while. If anyone has any suggestions, please tell me!

I'm also just over half way through making the pair of moccasins begun in February during the Great Moon Gathering. There won't be any gorgeous beading like on the pair I was given at the start of term, but as I'm making them - they're a much closer fit.
