A 1.5-hour drive took me to Boalsburg, home of the Pennsylvania Military Museum. The married bloggers who write Random Intolerance also live in the State College area, and I got to meet them, too.
The weather cooperated a little better, and I was able to get some cool pictures from my window seat.
I didn’t have the clearest of weather 10 days ago when I took the first picture, but tonight the weather was clear. I also wanted to see how far up or down the sun would move. I tried to touch-up the June 14 picture, but that made the sun’s disk too big.
Oooguluk Island is a project owned by Pioneer Natural Resources. It is about five miles off the shore near Kuparuk, AK. Access is helicopter-only in the summer, but it can be driven to over ice roads in the winter.
The flight was pretty smooth, and most of the water was still frozen over. The suit prevented me from getting my camera out, but it wouldn’t have mattered much since I was in the middle of a group of five others.
