    Had to laugh, because every time I would have a hot flash I would run out and plop down in the snow and make snow angels . I told everyone that I was born to live in Alaska. Less flashing, but still love it here!

    I have lived here 32 years and still love it! I live in the banana belt of AK now anyway.

    I get my flashes most often in the middle of the night.

    Hi Sparky - I'd love to be there, Alaska is on my destination list. My father was in the service and stationed there long B/4 he met mom and started a family. He always wanted to return, and it was the last trip he took B/4 he passed away. Hope you have a great show!

    My brother has lived there 55 years and will never leave. I left in 77 and have visited a couple of times since.

    HI Sparky

    I think I met you a few years ago as our tour went to Eagle River. You were selling crafts and if you are the right person your husband wrote a book and I bought one. i would love to come back to Alaska again, It is a beautiful place and everyone should try and visit there. Good luck with your show
