Saturday’s letter is H! A to Z home

There’s no place like home. It can mean many things to different people.

Alaska is my chosen home – I have lived here more than half my life. Hubby-moose and I have built a home here for ourselves and our two daughters. Over the years our home was opened to those who needed a place to stay – one night or several years – and to the friends of our daughters. Now it is open to grandkids and their friends.

I have a little saying I use when people talk about coming to our home. If you are coming to see my house – make an appointment. If you are coming to see ME – come anytime. Yeah, I’m not much of a housekeeper. There are many more important things – like the aformentioned grandkids.

My larger home is ALASKA and I love to show her off to friends and family. I also just love to SEE her in her glory.

Today I drove to Seward with a daughter and granddaughter for the last swim meet of the year. We enjoyed watching the Pup excel in her chosen events – even though the coveted JO times were not met. She bested previous times and is planning to improve over the summer before next year’s season starts.

On our way back home to Kenai we stopped several places along the way to snap some pictures while stretching those muscles that had been cramped on folding chairs for several hours.

I’d like to share a bit of HOME with you tonight. I am such an Alaskan Homebody.
