Setting at the Kansas City airport waiting for departure time! First time to Alaska and first time flying with a firearm. So far so good!


As a general rule, people are nuts!

The problem with that first trip to Alaska is,
having to fly home! My first trip to AK was Sept. 1994, have only been back to America for funerals/weddings. Smiler Good luck on your adventure! tu2

Yup!! Visited the 907 in 1989, moved here permanently in 1992. Now retired and wouldn't live anywhere else.

Never heard of Alaska referred by its area code but having lived there as well, recognized that immediately.

You see '907' everywhere there-on truck stickers, hats, car stickers, T-shirts. . . . .etc, etc. Big Grin First time I saw it, it took me a little time to figure it out. Big Grin

Number one Tat in the state. Only one area code in the entire state the size of 1/5 of the lower 48.

I have only been there once about 20 years ago -- Wrangell/Stikine -- but dear God I loved that place.

Always been one of my goals.
Even joined the Army with a "contract" to be
a dozer oper in AK.
Yeah sure! Cook to Germany!

After that I drove a truck OTR that had been to Prudhoe three times the year before and had just gotten back from being one of 26 hauling iron to the Panama Canal rebuilding.

Never made it up there yet!
Was headed to Edmonton, made it to Calgary and called to check in and told to call a local number. Office trailer hauled to Gillette!
Never been further north yet.

No better time then to go then now.

Buy a ticket jump on the plane and be there in a few hours.

It is well worth it.
