Getting Ready......


Two weeks and counting, guess it is a go passed my exams so onward.........

This is the first post for this blog. I am opening this blog to keep you informed about my adventure in Northern Ontario. To he left you see the place I am going to. I have been getting prepared to leave for the journey. Not sure what awaits me but I am sure it will be character building. Spring in Summer Beaver a fly in First Nations Reserve.

I have received my orders, bring all of your food, there is nothing up here......we have one store but the food if there is any is very expensive, we don't drink the water we bathe and wash our clothes......we have one phone shared and it is located in the nurses station.....yeah you share a small residence with any professional staff that visit and it is very small.....internet well one connection in the nurses station that we all share.......


I will be flying to Thunder Bay on W estjet and from there take the stop and go (stops at many other reservations) to Summer Beaver on Wasaya Airlines....http://www.wasaya.com/default.asp?id=268&pid=2&cid=265&ref=1.
Stay tuned will keep you posted on the details.
