I would like to live somewhere that doesn't snow, plz.
@Tail and I would love to sell the 5 acres in Florida and go back to mountains and snow.
@floryloughead Grass is always greener eh? It's not so much the snow here as it is the isolation. Alaska is basically an island, I can't just go for a drive and be somewhere sunny.
@Tail Driving to Anchorage, Homer, or Seward once the snow/ice hits is not something I ever did. The Kenai is isolating still, I always had stuff to do and that is why I miss Alaska. Even when we lived in Ketchikan, I always had stuff to do and never wanted nor needed to go anywhere. Maybe that is why I hate Florida so much, there is nothing to do, and everything is miles away.
Funny story: in 17 years in Alaska/PNW I never needed a SADD lamp. Moved to Florida and have to use one every winter.
@floryloughead I'm halfway between Kenai and Soldotna in a dead zone, ISPs don't even provide internet service here. I have friends in FL though, hence the willingness to trade. If I had money to afford to do outside stuff like 4-wheeling or snowmachining or if I had a knack for fishing it would be different
Strange about the lamp though, that seems backwards. I know they installed them in lots of the streetlights around bus stops and on the busses themselves. I figured it was a Vitamin D issue
@Tail never did the snow machine/ski/4-wheeling/fishing thing. Somehow, always busy.
I don’t know a soul in the whole state of Florida. Guess we’ll trudge through regardless.
