Kids playing in the Delta

I thought this was interesting to share. The diabetes program provides funding to village schools for exercise equipment. Here is how some of that money was spent in the village of Nunapitchuk. They are called kicksleds, and I've seen them around Bethel but until now, I had no idea what they were. A child can sit in the front while another kid stands on the back pushing the sled around. Since there is snow here for 6 months a year, people must be creative with their outdoor activities.

Speaking of snow, I thought we would be all finished with winter, but I was wrong. The delta has experienced huge snow storms all week, and temperatures are around 15-20 degrees. It is still much milder than last month, so I guess I should not complain.
