Heck Pics are a survival item for Alaska! If it wasn't for those mosquito coils, this place would be unfit for human habitation!!

The boys made pull tab chains and the girls made gum wrapper chains. Ice cream trucks. Bungalow Bar trucks that had a shingled roof on it and an open cab. Judy Ann, and the good ol' Good Humor man with the white pants, shirt, and cap. The Good Humor man parked by the school on a three wheeler ice cream motorcycle. If I get going the list will go on forever. If a time machine was built I'd go back there in a heart beat.
