BAWAHAHAHA! Pikers! Bring on the sun!
For example, here is a list of state vegetable records set in last year's Alaska State Fair:
23-foot, 3 1/2-inch corn stalk
4.702-pound parsnip
1,019-pound pumpkin
17.195-pound yellow zucchini
67 1/8-inch long gourd
55.15-pound blue hubbard squash
21.530-pound bushel gourd
I had the opposite experience.
My experience, also, happened during the longest days. In 3 days, I basically did nothing but fish, sightsee and fish. I figured if there was sunlight, I should be fishing or sightseeing.
After 72 hours of the fishing and sightseeing and no real sleep, I became catatonic for about 24 hours. After that I limited the fishing and sight seeing to about 16 hours per day.
They probably just ran out of beer.
"Calomiris and Grunstra claimed that they had been sunburned," troopers wrote in a dispatch. "They were unprepared to deal with the long day length and any further exposure to the sun.
Girlie Men. Girlie Men!
BUT This.....
Troopers say they got a report of an emergency locator beacon .... Troopers alerted the Alaska Air National Guard, the U.S. Coast Guard and then diverted their own Dillingham-based floatplane that was in the area to head to the scene and check things out.is NOT funny. Bill their Nancy Boy City butts for every nickel!
I knew more about 'the outdoors' when I was friggen TEN than these schmucks! And I lived in CHICAGO.
Guys from DC and Bethesda? That explains it.
Tree-huggers proven unfit to hug trees.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
Thanks for the laugh. Those of us who actually live in the Alaskan Bush wait anxiously every year for stories about folks from the lower 48 who seem to think that their 3-day sojourn at the local KOA somehow qualifies them for time up north.
We love the light. You should see what it does to the garden. It’s great to be out at midnight fishing, or waking up with the light streaming in the window.
And the winter isn’t bad. Any day without mosquitoes is a plus. LOL
Someone should have told these two morons about the hunting laws concerning bears. We have very strict hunting regulations up here. The law allows the bears no more than four tourists every season.
Hahahahah.. yes yes we’re manly men, we’re going to go spend a week in the alaskan bush....
We lasted 2 days.
Were you attacked by bears?
Nope, Sunburned.
Hahahahahahahahaa... man these two will never live this one down.
Last year, we took our family on a cruise to Alaska.
My kids all know how much of Alaska we saw on our cruise. We barely saw any of it, and we covered a lot of territory.
My 12 year old daughter now shakes her head about drilling in Alaska.
She said that kids in her class thought that drilling in ANWR would destroy all of Alaska. She kept on trying to tell them how big Alaska is and that ANWR is only a very small portion of it, but the kids just didn’t get it.
Captain! Captain, the stars have all gone out!
Lt., how many times do I have to tell you, the stars only turn on when the sun is turned off?
Awww Geeez..
Drama queens.
Two things I get from this story, First, these were obviously two wimpy gays from the DC area. Second, why did they spell bush with a capital B? They are saying that it was Bush’s fault that these two gays had a hard time of it.
