Tundra and Tundra-Goers

More lichen! I love them. 

Really beautiful colors this afternoon out on the tundra. It is flat as far as the eye can see.

The vistas give me goosebumps, they are so beautiful!

Speaking of goosebumps, I can't believe I'm sitting here in a tank top and shorts while you guys are bundled up in parkas...LOL!

And we'll be learning more about lichens in the biology class I'm holding for a few of the homeschooled teens in our group. :)

Thanks for the link, Annie! Aren't lichens the most fascinating life forms? =) We're doing lichens in chapter 21, the fungi chapter, so this link will be great then. Thanks again!

I love your photos! They make me feel like I can drive down the street and be back in Barrow. Your photos are amazing!

Thanks for sharing.
