I'm moved home to Alaska, and I'm staying put. No longer a part-timer, or snowbird as they say here, but for really, for truly, in Fairbanks. It feels great.
Erica's latest top 10 favorite things about moving back:
1. Moosemeat
2. Hot Licks Ice Cream
3. I know someone on every corner. No, I'm related to someone on every corner.
4. Everyone says "Welcome Home."
5. Aritists! Da-Ka-Xeen, Maya, Sonya...the list goes on.
6. Bingo
7. Rivers, rivers, rivers. Tanana, Nenana, Chena.
8. Fishwheels.
9. Fireweed.
10. My goofy dad.
