That's cool. Was your family in the military or somehting. I know there is an AF base in Alaska. And since you said overseas. Well I just wondering.

No, my family was not in the military. There are several Air Force and Army bases in Alaska (near Fairbanks we have Fort Wainwright and Eielson Air Force Base), but the reason my family travelled was because my father was on sabbatical from his position as a professor at the University of Alaska.

I miss AK!
Please go to Thai house for me! I'm sure there are several other places I could request, but their egg rolls...that sauce!!!

Oh yay! It's wonderful to have another Fairbanksan on the boards! How cool.
I wanted to go to the Thai House today, but it's closed because the owners were in Phuket when the tsunami hit. They're okay, apparently, but I think they're still there with family.
I went to Lemongrass instead :-)

Oh! I am glad they are OK. Well, right now I live in Phoenix. It is NOT for me! I know I will live here for about 2 years longer. My husband is in the Air Force, and we are some of the few who feel Alaska is the perfect place for us. I don't know if we will retire in Fairbanks or in another town. I wanted to move to Seward and open a B&B, but since the tsunami hit I have been a bit less excited about that idea.
There is so much that I miss about Fairbanks. The little coffee shacks, the great Thai food (I live in the 5th largest city in the US and can't find any good Thai food!!), the snow, heck I even miss our weekend afternoons of driving into town to go to Fred's and Sam's. Oh, and I REALLY miss the summers. Phoenix weather is not my cup of tea.
As soon as you go to Thai House, tell me!
