					<description>Quite frankly, it seems to me that Oregonians and Alaskans share certain affinities, like cool, wet weather!.....  Charmi did get here in the nick of time--- though the time getting here was a bit more than a nick: 19 hours, as her connecting flight from Seattle was delayed a couple hours when the palne she was supposed to board coming from Newark was delayed several hours by lousy weather.  She's still prowling the campground for a moose....</description>

					<description>Unfriendly?  Not really,after all there is a reason they live in Alaska.  Why would they need cartoons?  Ain't much humor up there, in the climate or otherwise.  Hope you make OR on the way home.  You need to see the best of the American NW.

Charmi's getting there not a moment too soon, methinks.</description>

					<description>Have tried a few of the Alaska brews, but Bud is still best!  Actually, I haven't had more than a half dozen beers on the whole trip.  I'm surprised I'm not dehydrated!  C'mon up and try a few!</description>

					<description>Sounds like you're acclimating well and learning the secrets to surviving Alaska, the last and most expensive frontier. The weather sounds better than what we've experienced here so far. Interestingly you haven't commented on the areas beer types and prices.Perhaps you'll consider normalizing your appearance before attempting to cross the border again.Hopefully Charmi is bringing you additioal cash.</description>
