More Nome pictures

After the Musk Ox adventure I went to another lecture at the Bering Land Bridge NPS office on "Beringia".  Beringia refers to an ancient steppe that included both parts of Siberia and Alaska, and inlcudes the land bridge that is now submerged that used to connect the two.  I've been learning a lot about the Shared Beringian Project so I figured that going to the lecture would be good to learn more about it.

I talked to one of the rangers there for a little bit who is from New Hampshire.  It's so nice meeting New Englanders here.

Anyway, after that I walked around Nome again and took some more pictures, stopped by race headquarters, and stared at the Bering Sea for a bit.
