Oh boy I can definitely relate to this. In fact I better not even get started cause I might end up writing a bestseller LOL

How many days are ya goin for? Last time I went to AK it was in August and it ws perfect weather. Still warm in the interior but cool at the coast. Nights were cool but still had some light in the sky around 10PM and later. Like you said, there's so much to see and do that it can't possibly all be done in one trip. We spent a lot of time on the road - went to the Arctic Circle, climbed a glacier, saw the pipeline, and did some other stuff. Did a little fishing but nothing major. To do it all takes lots of time and money so my advice is to visit several times and do a little each time. I'm headed back up in January. Have fun buddy!

I was talkin to a buddy of mine who was complainin to me about some discipline problems he's havin with his boys (9 and 7). Some of what he described to me sounded a little bit like "boys will be boys" stuff, in other words no big deal. But most of it sounded like the kind of stuff that could be cured with a trip out to the woodshed and a wide leather belt. Don't get me wrong...that's not my first line of defense with mine either. I try all other options first but if the message aint gettin across I won't hesitate to get the belt. Maybe it's old fashioned but if I remember correctly it seemed to work just fine when I was growin up. What do yall think?

Thanks for yer work. I'm about an hour away from ya but I'll check out yer site.

Im in Texas and this has been a weird year. I know it usually is cooler here with El Nino but this was in our top 10 for coldest Decembers on record. It snowed more this month than in a typical year or more. Plus the Christmas eve blizzard. I can't wait to see what my electric bill is like...all electric heat here

Realized I joined a year ago or somethin like that and forgot all about it. Hows life on RealTree folks? Hopin for a good 2010!
