WTF is Laura Barrett doing in the Yukon?

Ok, so maybe you didn’t know she was in the Yukon, but she is and if you want to know why or what she’s doing there, there is a Blog on Eclaim! that will explain it all to you and give you updates on what she’s up to.

“For the month of February, I’m living in Dawson City, Yukon as the DCMF Songwriter-in-Residence. Dawson’s winter population is even smaller than the 1300 listed in the census, so it’s a bit of a change for city-girl me! It’s also been going hitting -40 Celsius, meaning up to 20 minutes of layering before going outside. While I’m here, I’ll be playing a couple of concerts, and working with grade schoolers at Robert Service School. If I have any free time, I plan to volunteer with the Yukon Quest dog sled race. Let’s see how much I can get done in 7 hours of daily light!”

Ok, it’s only blog-like – there is no XML feed to tell you when it’s been updated, and the ads are a little much but … alot of Canadian media sites only kind of get the web thing half way and it’s the best way to keep up with Laura‘s doings in the cold!
