Was looking at the weather report in Alaska as I posted this.

Juneau 27f

Fairbanks 21f

Bethel 29f

Homer 22f

That’s a freaking heat wave! Plus this is what 3 hours behind me so they are at night, what is the day time temps? Not good for the dogs.

I spent a year at the (then existant) Campion Air Force Station (AFS) which was at the end of a 9 mile dirt road from Galena, many years ago.

Partway through the tour, the AF decided we could go home for 2 weeks at the 6 month point.

Initially I thought going home halfway done was great, but then I found out how hard it was to go back for another 6 months.

Back then the Radar Site, Galena, and some F-104 Fighters were where the action was.

I thought Campion was Remote, but then when they flew our departing plane north to some really, really Remote Radar Sites, I saw some places that made Campion look like a fine Resort with River front views. LOL
