You want olden days? I’ll give you olden days! The Greenhouse Library v1, 10 August 2017. The first thing @dollyjorgensen.bsky.social and I did upon starting our jobs here was converting one of our offices to a library. And then we shared the other one. Got to make some sacrifices for community!

Long and skinny office with lots of books. Looks kind of inprovised…

Welcome to the new Greenhouse Library! There’s still a big blank spot for the table and chairs (due to arrive in mid-Sept) and a few new bookcases, but it’s come together nicely.

Over the summer, the new Greenhouse #envhum Library space has taken shape. Today we found some really nice solid wood tables in the building’s bomb shelter! We salvaged them so that we can have our Thursday lunches here from now on.

Room with meeting room table, shelves of book on the back. Nice and bright.

Just walked the dog and was wondering why I didn't see a single person. And there's hardly any cars on the road. It's like we're back in the early covid lockdown days. I was confused until I opened the newspaper and saw the overpaid people are kicking a ball around again. Ah.

Overlooking Adventdalen, with Longyearbyen and the Advent fjord at the end. Behind me, up on the mountain, Mine 7 (the last Norwegian coal mine to close in 1025) and the EISCAT radar station. Sadly the road was closed past where we stopped, so we couldn’t go all the way to the radars.

A bunch of common eiders (and some barnacle geese) made their nesting site right next to a husky kennel outside Longyearbyen. The Arctic foxes don’t like the dogs, so their nests are safer there. They were used to people.

Getting my bearings in Svalbard, where I’ll spend the next week on the 100+ year old schooner Noorderlicht up along the Western coast. Until departure: stout from the northernmost brewery in the world; all the museums in Longyearbyen; wildlife photo safari. And snow buntings, so pretty. Good stuff.
