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.

Ignorance

"To be ignorant of one's ignorance is the malady of the ignorant." Bronson Alcott

"Ignorance gives one a large range of probabilities." George Eliot

My greatest struggle is with my own ignorance. I admire the Buddhist philosophy that lack of enlightenment causes most of the problems in world. Certainly we can see that in political leadership throughout the world; however it's our own ignorance that we must deal with first.
