I thought this was funny way to post about all things Alaskan!!! Some I forgot about and some are a great reminder of what we are going back to. ENJOY!
You see a car running in the parking lot at the store with no one in it no matter what time of the year.
It takes only a 15-minute drive to "get away from it all".
The town you live in is "away from it all".
Anything above freezing is T-shirt weather.
You've ever had to put on long johns, sorrels, snow pants, T-shirt, button-up flannel, light jacket, heavy coat, scarf, face mask, thick hat, and thick gloves just to walk a few blocks to the store.
It has been -20°F for two weeks, warms up to 0°F and you call it a warm spell.
You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
If you know all 4 seasons as: almost winter, winter, still winter and construction.
You think $4 for a loaf of bread is cheap.
Your bedroom windows are covered in aluminum foil or black blankets.
You see people wearing Carharts at social events.
Your idea of a traffic jam is 10 cars waiting to pass a motor home on the highway.
You go to school, work, or both in the dark and come out in the dark.
When you go to the lower 48 you wonder where everybody's block heater cable.
The municipality buys a zamboni before a bus.
Shoveling the driveway constitutes great upper body workout.
Everyone has hundreds of recipes for moose meat.
