the last piece of mail you recieved

[Jake]

GW sent me an invitation to a college visit and I got a Weekly Standard.

[??????????]

I don't get mail. O_o

I bet it's because they don't have roads out there yet? Huh ?

-_- Har har. I'll have you know we have 5,000 miles of paved road. Maybe the near 24 hour daylight we're getting has something to do with it... >_>

Wow! That's more paved road then we have down here! We still have a lot of dirt roads here.

ILV, Gabu and Everett have started their own company and are having John send letters in leet?

Who woulda thunk it....

Oh and today I recieved a postcard with the grade I was given on my ECON final (it really should of gotten here months ago but my professor must have sent it off late). Though, I already knew I had recieved an A in the class I'm proud that I got a 95/100 on the final. Mainly because this guy was tough, he had only given 2 A's in a class of 40-something people last semester.

Same with Alaska. We have more unpaved road than paved. <_<

Couldn't afford all that expensive concrete?

We use ice in winter.

If I can ask, AkSaber, whereabouts in Alaska do you live?  I thought you lived in a big city all this time, but what you describe sounds rural.

[Nation]

I'll go out on a limb and say AkSaber lives in either Seward or Juneau.

If I can ask, AkSaber, whereabouts in Alaska do you live?  I thought you lived in a big city all this time, but what you describe sounds rural.

Certainly. I live in the city of Anchorage, which is home to 42% of Alaska's population. It's a big city and all, but there's rural life all around here. Lots of trees and tundra. Not much civilization. And there's a mountain range just 15 miles east of my house, and an active volcano less than 100 miles northwest of here.  Between Anchorage and Fairbanks and down to Homer there are just a few small towns and the rest is wilderness. Rural everywhere!!

I'll go out on a limb and say AkSaber lives in either Seward or Juneau.

Good guesses. I've been to Seward a few times, but never to Juneau. No road there. -_- Juneau has about 30,000 people and I think that's big, and Fairbanks has around 70,000 residents, and I think that's huge! So Alcon and Nation, my idea of a "big" city is undoubtably much much smaller than yours.

I think you should stay away from Manhattan, in that case.

Without a doubt! I was like you when I grew up in rural Cecil, and my idea of a "big city" was Baltimore. When I saw Philly and New York, blew me away. Now I regularly go to DC and Baltimore, go to school in the 2nd biggest city in New York -- I still love the small town atmosphere though. Always have.

I also plan on visiting Seward one day, and desperately want to take a trip out to Alaska to see if I like it --- it's a spot I'm keeping open toward moving to one day (even with the 24 hours of sunlight )

I like the way big cities look. Well, at least the downtown areas with all the big buildings at night. And I'm kinda eager to see some more big cities.

The only big cities I've ever been to are Honolulu, Seattle, and Washington DC. I thought downtown Seattle was absolutely beautiful at night. I'd never seen buildings that tall before. Here in Alaska buildings can only be 21 stories tall. Earthquakes and all. But I can't wait to see more big cities!! NYC is first on my list, and some more of the East Coast. In my life I've only been east of the Mississippi River once. Anyway, small town life is really nice, but seeing a big city was quite a change for me.

Seward is ok to visit. A big (by my standards ) marina is there. Not much to do in Seward unless you plan to go fishing. But the scenery there is really nice. Lots of mountains and wilderness. I think this state is a great place to live. And the near 24 hours of daylight we get, you'd get used to it. And don't forget, in winter we get just a few hours of daylight. I guess to make up for summer or something. >_>

That doesn't stop San Francisco from having taller buildings.

Well, Manhattan is a very big city.    I come from a city of 300,000 where the tallest building is 10 storeys.  Going to a city of several million where the shortest building was 50 storeys was quite a shock, let me tell you.  I got vertigo from looking up!
