LIVE THREAD! "SARAH PALIN'S ALASKA" WEEK 6 - TLC 9/8C (Panning for Gold)

Sarah and Jerry Groff, aka Bones

SARAH PALIN wrote on FaceBook:

Quads, Bogs, and Bones

Life is so unpredictable, and like my dad always says, it’s “too short to be stuck in a rut!” One way to get out of a rut is to find inspiration in the great outdoors. Activity and fresh air are energizing! Sunday at 9pm ET/8c on “Sarah Palin’s Alaska,” we show you a few things that we find more fulfilling than staying indoors and sitting on the couch.

Plato said, “You learn more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.” So join us as we learn more about each other and what God’s creation has to offer, as we pack up the RV to go dog mushing, white water rafting, four-wheeling, and fossil hunting where we find evidence of ancient sea life on the high hilltops of the Last Frontier! Come join us as we experience more of Alaska’s amazing sights and meet a few more of our friends, including a very special friend we visit in this episode who passed on recently. This episode is dedicated to our old friend “Bones.” You can watch a preview of it here.

My early New Year’s wish for all is that inspiration and fulfillment will be yours in 2011. Remember that one way to find that is to get outdoors.

Entertainment Tonight previewed tonight's episode, and PalinTV offers this short clip:

Sarah Palin’s Alaska Preview: Kickin’ Up Dirt

Sarah Palin is packing up her RV and taking her family on an overnight trip that includes white-water rafting and ATVing on Sunday night’s episode of “Sarah Palin’s Alaska.”

“We woke up early to hit some trails and kick up some dirt,” says Sarah, who is taking her family to visit a longtime friend, Jerry Groff, aka Bones, who got his nickname because he’d spend all winter in a cabin and he’d come out skin and bones.

Later, Sarah and Piper spend some mother/daughter time and meet Iditarod champions and go dog sledding on a nearby glacier.

The bookstore got a nasty letter and my membership card back in the mail. lol. Sarah was far more gracious than they ever thought about being.

GOOD on you! Nasty book store and like you said, Sarah had handed Piper a pen!

We visited Seavey’s operation in Seward and took a sled dog ride in a wheeled cart. It was run by his sons and was really interesting and fun. Our musher was a young man from Ohio who always wanted to be a musher from childhood. He followed his dream to Alaska and got a job at the Seavey kennels. He had just qualified for the Iditarod. I would have loved to go for a ride on the glacier.

I think she’ll be just as camera friendly then as she is now. My hubby thinks she’s a handfull now...I think she’s spunky. Besides, she’ll be 11 in 2012.

Ok someone needs to explain to me how Palin hits these rubber things that fly in the air but it takes her 5 shots to shoot a Caribou.

Because her rifle scope had been knocked off zero when her Dad (who was packing it) took that hard fall on the way to the hunting ground.

I don’t know if anybody else notice but the camera crew got a picture of Sarah w/o her glasses on as she was getting ready for the rafting trip.

Thanks very much for your kind words. Next Sunday is the day after Christmas, so I think her series will air as scheduled.

A Blessed and Merry Christmas to you and to everyone here.

Of course, I will see most, if not all during the week, but this is our special thread.

Shooting a shot gun is a lot different than a rifle. Shooting the flying targets you really don’t need to use the sights. Its more of a point and shoot.
