When I was in a Viking village (Leif Ericson's home) in southern Greenland
in Summer of 1978, there was lots of green grass all around; I also saw a
heavy tractor-pulled plow sitting on a crate outside the government-run
store awaiting pickup by a "farmer."  I was amazed to see such a plow in
Greenland, but there it was; I laid my hands on it; think I have a photo of
it somewhere.

There was also lots of greenery (low bushes and grass all around Sondrestrom
Air Base) at the upper/inland end of Sondrestromfjord (35 miles above arctic
circle) for coupla months in Summer.  In late Aug, all of that greenery
turned into some of the brightest Autumn colors I've ever seen - bright
reds, yellows, etc.  The hills around the base were beautiful with the
Autumn colors till they were covered by the season's first snow (8 inches)
10 Sep; had not snowed again by the time I left 8 Feb, but the 8-inch snow
was still there.
