More photographs…. the good, bad and ugly of my Alaskan home
July 24, 2018
In 2002 I moved into a home that I would occupy for 14 years.
Below are some photographs some not pretty
but all show the reality of my life
on the edge of nowhere.
Our welcome mat at the driveway entrance
My son and daughter visiting at the cabin
Entering the cabin on a ‘cool’ day
My ‘kitchen’ and
my kitchen in use
My “living room”
The heater that kept me warm at 43 below
Food storage, work shop and electric power
A bed in the loft for me and any visitors
..also in the loft my ‘ham’ radio station and computer
…some people asked about how I get my water and what do I do about snow removal
…or what do I worry about the most
…but in the end I was blessed to live
in a land
touched by the hand of God

Well, you did do what a lot of folk dream of, and never do it.
Have you considered a place in Maine?? Seem like a little less
hateful in winter and “milder” summers–I read of from a gun writer who grew up
in Maine, his comment was “there two seasons in Maine,winter, and the fourth of July”
Sounds like your kind of place
good luck 73 john w8wej
