I moved from a life of office temping and acting in Los Angeles to a life of seasonal work in Denali, Alaska, in summer 2008. *****************
My two favorite local sayings that sum up Alaska are...
ON BEARS: "You don't have to be faster than the bear, you just have to be faster than the other guy."
ON FINDING A MAN: "The odds are good, but the goods are odd."
I believe there should be a third saying about drinking and smoking heavily, but I have yet to hear one.
************ PERSONAL GOAL: To walk all 90 miles of the one road in Denali National Park.
