Yooper or Troll?
Feeling less motivated?!

I refuse to acknowledge your reply in any manner whatsoever.
Unfortunately I'm a troll.
Which I'm pretty sure @Toothpick had me picked for a troll with my first thread...
So why would you rather be a Yooper? Personally, I can’t stand Green Bay. But then again, I don’t care much for Detroit either.

Well @FarmerTan you're not far off. Hawaii is pretty much the polar opposite to Alaska, so its nice to have some sun and warmth every now and then.
And I will have you know we get at least 30 minutes of sunlight.
@TexOkie Shaver Are you into outdoor activates? Hiking, fishing, or hunting?
My brother in law hunted in Alaska for a week one year in the summer. After that he wanted to live there! He said he looked down and saw trout in a stream as long as his arm, looked across and saw a huge elk, turned around and saw a huger moose, lol!
If I had only myself to worry about I'd have been living in those last two states admitted to our Union a long time ago!
Juneau is in a weird place in that we are like a bush community. Only way in is by boat or plane. But there are things to do.
My brother in law's dad pulled a 50 pound salmon out of the water here this year. Thing was a monster.
I think the only way I survive the winter is by doing Nordic skiing. I take my husky out skiing in the winter and have her pull me.
But I will not do any of that cold water shaving that everyone is raving about. I am cold enough as it is.
Not anymore. The legs won’t carry me very far. I’ve got a bad back and sciatica that they tell me is coming from the back. I used to love walking in the forests, woods, party’s, etc. and shooting photographs. Tomorrow I’m going to the hospital for a lower spinal epidural injection. I hope this works, otherwise it’s a life of back ache or back surgery.
That's too bad mate. Back issues are no joke. My father in law had some rubber donut put between two vertebrae. Best of luck to you.
I was going to say that if you ever found your way back up here to let me know and I would be happy to leave you on a mountain.
A few shots from Alaska. The first is the Yukon & White Pass RR. The second is the Mendenhall Park. The third is the tail of a humpback whale as it went deep.
I’ve got almost no space between L1-L5 and three bulging discs.That's too bad mate. Back issues are no joke. My father in law had some rubber donut put between two vertebrae. Best of luck to you.

I would have loved that back about 30 years ago. The mountain that is.

@TexOkie Shaver I run a good bit around Mendenhall before the salmon come in. Your photography skills are great! You should start an Alaska photos thread.
Thank you. I appreciate the compliment. I have been putting off running my photos through Lightroom and I need to do that before posting. I shoot my photos exposed to the right. They have to be adjusted to bring out the details.
