Been to Alaska, three times, love it, but have never been there other than the summer.

Alaska, the only state without an Interstate Highway. If you wanna visit the capital city of Juneau, you have to fly or hike in or come by boat, cuz there is no highway to/from there.

I guess I'm kind of wierd from all of the travelling I have done in my life - even around the world on a ship, for crying out loud. But it wasn't the kind of ship built for sight seeing.

I sometimes sit at the edge of my gravel driveway looking down the blacktop road that comes to meet it

And imagine all the places it leads to...



That's known as a "CALL" and is a thing that is always there
I've had it all my life.
