« on: August 19, 2011, 10:34:25 PM »
Hard to believe it,s almost Sept.My boy and I leave for Alaska on Sept.8 for 11days.Were headed to a remote island a little west of Kodiak Island.Silver salmon fishing- kayaking-and exploring.We do have to do a little work every day in exchange for food-room and board but well worth it.Then home and hard at it till the end of Oct. and I,m taking off the WHOLE month of Nov.--OH YEA!!!!!!!!!!Rutting bucks with a recurve-Black bear with the recurve and then flintlocks for bear if no luck with the bow.Throw in Predator calling and a small trapline and it,ll be an Awesome fall!!I,ll be staying at the cabin in Germania-Potter County--good luck to all this fall and have a great day--waste phejuta--Lloyd

Good Luck and stay safe.  Sounds like a great adventure.

You sure make me jealous. I was planning to move there this coming spring but was offered a lucrative business opportunity if I stay where I am so I canceled my flight to Alaska the end of this month. Guess I have to live in pa (city) for a while yet. Going to be in debt for a while, but in five years or less I should be getting somewhere financially. Maybe then it will work out to move. Family is nice, but when you try and move away, they panic and do all they can to stop your plans. 10 years from now I will only be 35 and hope by then to be able to buy a place in Alaska and move far away from washington.

coyotenightmare,
                       You have time to maybe some day make the move and your young yet.I,ll be 50 next year and thought a lot about possibly moving up but I have an established construction business here in Enola and do Ok.I,ve worked hard and now I enjoy a lot of extra time off-especially in hunting season.I,ve been to Alaska 5 times now and hope to go a few more times within the next few years.Took the wife to the Iditarod last year and she liked Alaska but had no interest in moving there.Were actually looking for land in or around the Adirondacks to possibly move to within a few years.Good luck in your new endeavours and have a great day!!Lloyd   Iku ekta kin Tate!!
