This is Ray's apartment complex in Naryan-mar. His apartment is quite comfortable with modern features. Naryan-mar is north of Moscow; 2 hours 40 minutes by plane. The following pictures are from my recent trip there. Ray's typical day here starts around 5:00 a.m. It is either daylight all the time or dark all the time. I would find that the hardest thing to get used to. A driver in a Land Cruiser picks him up and drives him to the office or the airport. He usually makes two trips a week to the field for meetings and inspections. What a way to make a living!!!
