Nikki in the North

My adventure of teaching First Grade in the Northwest Territories. var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-37299015-1']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); })();

2 & a half years ago I never imagined we would have a cozy little place in the north! Feels like a real home now ❤️

You know you want to go home when this article isn't phasing me....

This is the plane we take in and out of Fort Good Hope. Northwright airways is the only airline that serves the community. It’s a good thing the flight is only minutes. All I know is that if I have to hold the plane door shut while we're flying I want my $500 back.... I also don't know If I should be taking my Ativan since my reflexes probably need to be in prime working condition in case things begin flying open.
