So...this question is for you current Alaskan folk....
If you could some how beam to places you've resided or visited in the lower 48 (or anywhere in the world, for that matter) and bring back one item with you to your home in Alaska, within reason, something that you can carry by yourself or with one other person, something that doesn't need to be heated, cooled, watered or dried...what would it be? It's meant to be a fun question, that's all. ![]() |

Funny that you say that....not that I'm mocking your response at all...but my husband being the Aussie that he is...blackberry bushes are a HUGE problem back in Oz. I'm sure he'd gladly dump a bunch of the problem plants off the property he used to own in Victoria! Heh

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Everything I could ever possibly need or want, I can already obtain in Alaska. What I want out of life I can't obtain anywhere else but in Alaska.

Nothing. Sorry, there isn't anything that matches your description that couldn't be easily gotten without going to the lower 48.

Seahorses, corals, and tropical saltwater fish. It's such a hassle getting them shipped up to Juneau. I'm sure Anchorage has fish stores so you don't have to deal with that, but Juneau's pet store is questionable at best.

Can't think of anything.
I'd bring some citrus trees...but that would be useless. Otherwise, I'm happy with what we have. |

Ya'know, while I have whined about not being able to easily find some things here. I can't think of one thing that I must have that fits your criteria. If I really want it I just get on the internet.
Of course, I'm a transplant and haven't been here long. I still have lower 48 flashbacks ![]() I just wish that shipping costs weren't so prohibitive at times. Now, there are a few stores or restaurants I'd like to pickup and bring here ![]() Sonic anyone? Last edited by GoddessofRandomThoughts; 10-03-2007 at 01:51 PM.. Reason: so much to say |

Moonshine from Franklin County, Virginia.
Seriously, ripe fruits and vegetables. |

But all the kicking and screaming would cause such a rattle, that the volcanoes would erupt and multiple huge earthquakes would set off a chain reaction.......![]() |
