haha i thought about that... i can use one of the rooms and just go in every day with my sunlamp and lay out for a couple of hours lol. my cold and his cold are different though lol... I am freezing cold in 75 yeah... 75... I live in such a little climate bubble here. im so excited though to do something different and i have seen so many beautiful pictures. i lived in Atlanta for a while and i hated it... i was a bit worried about moving to the USA again... but it sounds entirely different to that hole. Atl and I did not get along lol. Is Palmer nice? That is where I am moving to Just wondering if anyone has been there. Also another question... can you get around on a bicycle in Alaska or am I going to need a car?

Biking is VERY popular in the summer months (weeks?). A car is a necessity in the winter. The town of Palmer is about 45 minutes out of Anchorage in the Matanuska-Susitna (MatSu) Valley. It acts as a suburb of Anchorage, while reflecting its roots as a farming town. Yes, Virginia, there ARE farms in Alaska. The government relocated a whole bunch of Scandinavian farmers from the north mid-west (Minnesota, the Dakotas, Wisconsin, etc.) back when and dropped them in the Valley. They grow world class veggies, and have world records for size due to the extended daylight hours. Palmer is the stepping off point for trips to Denali Nat'l Park and points in between (ask about Skinny Dick's Halfway Inn).
