very sad

Baker Lake has been a very sad place for the last three days.  A man went missing while fishing and Search and Rescue are still looking for the body.  They found his ATV and cell phone on the land and yesterday found hip waders and a fishing rod in the lake.  The grade 12 graduation ceremony went ahead.  There was talk of postponing the feast - instead, the feast went ahead but the games and square dance are being put off until next Friday.

Sorry to be a downer - but that along with the crash of the First Air flight to Resolute has had an effect up here.  We are never sure what news you get down South.  Though the reverse is also true -- as I had no idea Harper was in town.  Mind you, he was out at the mine; still, he must have landed somehere.  Oh well, no biggie.
