Waiting to board flight to Alaska!

[New York Hillbilly]

Well here I am sitting in Rochester airport. Time to see with my own eyes.

My aunt and uncle just got back from a cruise up there. They said it was the best trip they ever been on

Sounds awesome! Hunting, fishing, or just sightseeing?

I am envious...I love Alaska...I can close my eyes and  almost SMELL the muskeg and tundra....

 

By the way, if you get into Anchorage stop at  " The Great Alaska Bush Company"..

 

Look up a redhead named BAMBI and tell her that Pygmy says, " Thanks for the popcorn"....

Good luck with the interview and enjoy your stay.

I'm sure the "home-sickness" wont last long!

I may never get there for Pete's sake!! Flights cancelled, rebooked me on other flight to different city, flight got here 5 minutes to late so they would not let us board to go on to Seattle. Now sitting in Boston with neither Alaska Air or American willing to help. And to beat it all Alaska + American sent us here via United!!!! Who are these people!

If I do get there it is to interview for a position at their hospital.

Is the bar open yet?

[Pygmy]

What town is the hospital in ?

Show up tipsy and ask who you can operate on!!!

[New York Hillbilly]

Still in Beantown waiting for the ticket agents to show up so we can book a new flight to Seattle. Probably will have to spend the night there with no sign of any open seats to Anchorage.

Final destination place is Soldotna. It's on the Kenai Peninsula and they call it Alsakas playground.

Who needs the bar? I've been awake so many hours now I'm tipsy enough as it is. Can't even spell Alaska in my post above. Lol

Too intriguing to not tell the whole story Pygmy.....safe travels HillBilly

[Lawdwaz]

Good luck and safe travels NYH.

Soldotna is down on the Kenai peninsula... Wonderful, GORGEOUS  country...

 

Great fishing right out your back door..  You can  drive the main highway and watch whales on the sound on one side of you and see dall sheep on the mountain on the OTHER side..

 

Moose and caribou are a draw there..Good luck...  However, good moose and caribou is available over the counter  via air taxi across Cook Inlet. 

 

I'm not sure about deer hunting that far north ( Sitka blacktail)  but I am sure there is good black bear hunting.

 

Get accostomed to holstering a heavy handgun, or better yet, a light shotgun or big bore rifle, while hiking...Grizzlies are common there.. A few have been killed in self defense in recent years by citizens hiking or fishing..
