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.

Summer smoke


The hot dry July in the Alaska Interior finally made us pay with wildfires and smoke. The last couple weeks of July in Fairbanks were choked with smoke and ash from nearby wildfires. The photo at right is the sun hidden by smoke. Finally the August rainy season arrived and cleared the air. The local saying is that it always rains at the fair.
