I want to visit Alaska and will require access to a ATV, survival gear, moonshine and a bear pelt coat.

I tried it.

Put it in the googles and All it does is send me ads for toe fungus meds and reverse mortgages and lonely women in Juneau.

I got no time for this nonsense.

The bear pelt coat seems a little redundant.

Would you say the lonely women in Alaska were desperate?

Nope.

But when I lived in Russia, I could see it from there, so I’m something of an expert.

Whatcha wanna know.

I’m guessing he’s one of those people that dresses in layers.

Spent a summer there playing for the Goldpanners. Had a great time fishing and enjoying the outdoors.

I lived there for 10 years through the 70's.

Had a plane and flew a lot to get anyplace - the place is huge.

Now days I hear that they have build roads and have cars and stuff. Even heard that they have shopping malls, and running water, too.

Never lived there, but have taken about 8 vacations there.....I'm doing it wrong though, never required anything on your list.

Thank you all.

In all seriousness I’m going but it’d be fun having watch talk with a member and some grizzlieses and mooses around.

And the ladies are fun too. Can crush beer cans with their pinkys and steal your heart with their how dare you scratch my truck glance now pleasure me with some home made salmon jerky you lousy dolt of a watch loving hairy hunk man you!
