Sourcing

My primary goal, at this point is sourcing my Alaskan heritage. Alaska records are as yet, not digitized, therefore I am searching documents, going through books &amp; eventually will find what is on microfilm. Possibly PhotoDup is in my near future.

[edit] Get Me OUTSIDE

Come summer time, hiking, biking, roller skating, skiing, swimming and good long walks are but a 'few of my favorite things'. Gardening, rather flowers or veggies is the best at home activity unless you have a push mower.... Winter brings excitement to play in the snow, my favorite being snowshoeing, second is cross country skiing, which I have not done for over a year now. Snowboarding &amp; downhill skiing were great in Alaska but too expensive for me now, here in Utah. I will shovel your sidewalk if you want because all I want is to be outside, rain, snow or sunshine....

[edit] Missions

McAllen Texas, spanish speaking proselyting mission was my first. Brutal to my health, more so my lungs, was South Texas. The humidity, most often 100% combined with heat, temps reaching over a 100' in summer months filled my lungs with fluid. The downhill slide started with heat exhaustion, leading to pnuemonia &amp; pluerisy, which ended me in the hospital for a week draining the fluid out of my lungs.
