In 2002, we fell in love with Alaska and purchased property near Fairbanks. Our Alaska log home was built in 2003 by Bill Kisken of Log Weavers here in Fairbanks. Bill is an artist, who uses the hand scribed Swedish cope system. Notice how tightly the logs fit at the ends, this is very diffucult to achieve. We retired in 2013, and moved our residence to Alaska.

Beautiful Northern Wisconsin


The snow is great, the people are wonderful, and the ski trails are the best. What more could you ask for. This morning I skied 17 kilometers at the Cumberland Ski Trails, just a few miles from the house we rented in Cumberland, Wisconsin. The trails are in great shape, the skiing is free, and no crowds, I only saw three other people on the course. That is my kind of skiing.

In the afternoon, Cathy and I drove to the Telemark Lodge in Cable, which is the start of the Birkebeiner this Saturday. Cathy took the time to be photographed next to Torstein Skevla and Skjervald Skrukka as they ski to save the baby Prince Haaken from the Baglers.
