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.

Congratulations to Aliy and Allen

Congratulations to Allen Moore and Aliy Zirkle for another great showing in the Copper Basin 300 dog sled race. Allen finished second to Jeff King. All 12 of Allen's dogs finished the race.

Allen's face at the finish (from their blog) reminds me of the Mark Twain quote:
"Why is it that we rejoice at a birth and grieve at a funeral? It is because we are not the person involved."
