I decided to go outside and watch the sunset. It was 10:00 PM when I took the first picture. The sun would set for 4 hours. It never became dark. It was a constant dusk. In 6 days time, the sun would never set again until August. I walked about 100 yards to capture another scene. Little did I know, but I was walking with the wind. When I turned around to go back to the hotel, I faced a wind with a chill temperature of about 50 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. My cheeks suffered a wind burn and turned a reddish color for a couple of days. It didn't hurt however. I went back inside the hotel and was telling people how beautiful the red sunset was. Van wanted to see it so I got dressed for the outside again and took Van to see the sunset. I walked on top of a snow drift and had Van take this picture of me. I was fascinated at how strong the snow drift I was walking on could hold my weight. I was about 4 feet off the ground. The crunching sound was very weird.
