Around 10 below as I type and supposed to get down to minus 25 by morning, and that ain’t cold. We’ll have 2-3 weeks minus 60 come January. Super nice summers, good hunting, fishing, just wonderful country without houses everywhere ya look. Actually , we get people move up every spring, can’t wait to leave soon as the roads open nx Spring, most just can’t handle it; others luv the Country. Sure is where we belong. I met Palin many years back in the MatSu. Only political I’d ever believe what she said, sure wish she was still our Governor, did good things here in Ak.

I have quite a few friends that live up there and come to Montana for the winters...its about the only other place most Montana natives would consider moving to. (personally I'm also partial to Texas but thats about it)

As long as I have food and heat, the winter wouldn't bother me. I watch Gold Rush and think I'd like to have a crack at that. Gold panning that is. It's just a pipe dream though.

Alaska does have a strong Independent party support, there could be some serious thought and actions soon.

The problem of course would be the libs in Anchorage.

Actually I would be willing to bet if any state secedes it will be Alaska first.
