CHRISTMAS!

     MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM ALASKA

This greeting comes from far up north, a land of snow and ice.
Some find the life here’s much too harsh; we think it’s rather nice. 
We like to share the streets with moose; the trails with wolf and bear.
In lofty pines fat ravens screech, and eagles skim the air.

We love the glow of northern lights and sunsets on the snow;

The jagged mountains rise in sight most any place you go.
The spirit here is bright and young; there’s energy and hope.
There’s faith all problems can be solved with duct tape, nails, and rope.

We think Alaska’s really cool; in fact, it’s downright cold.

But all the hearts and hugs are warm, and spirits shine like gold.
And we’ll survive for nine more months in this, “The Last Frontier”;
Then we’ll come home and see you all:  Our friends and family dear!
