I love to read and have a very widr range of intrest
INTERESTS
FISHING is my great love and I share it with the kids in my life.We catch a lot more fish than we could ever use. I have learned to smoke fish and to can fish. And to can the smoked fish. I fight with the vacum sesker and fill up the freser. In the winter I like to read more and make a quilt sometimes.In the spring I like to teavel around this partof Alaska and watch the wild life.The bears come down the snow slides and the moose hide in the willows with their calves.
TELEVISION
I like to watch the hunting and fishing shows. Will leave it on for background sometimes. Don't have much paitence with game shows. I haven't found reality shows to be very real. Usually watch the news and keep up with the markets a bit.
HEROES
I think most people are capable of heroic actions and some of heroic times. We all seem to be just as capable of blunders of heroic proportions.
Icame to Alaska 12 years ago because I was spending all my time waiting to come back up here on my next vacation. I work with troubled 'teens and fish for Salmon most days in the summer.Just take them with me.I'm a single grandmother that has always fished and hunted and enjoyed the outdoors. One of my sons lives in the area, but the other two live in the lower 48.

Every flower has a history and every flower symbolizes something. Often the history and symbols are confusing and contradictory but they are still fascinating. If your birthday is in the month of June, your flower is the rose. Here is the story and language of your flower.
The Linguistic Roots for the Name Rose
The Latin name for the rose, rosa, literally means red. Diana Wells suggests that saying that rose means red is like saying the heart is a muscle situated on the left side of the rib cage, it is an incomplete understanding of what the blossom symbolizes.
History of the Flower
Quite possibly the most popular flower in the history of the world, the rose has a multitude of legends and myths surrounding it. A flower of such prominence must be related to the gods of our world or at least one would think so when considering the wealth of otherworldly associations attached to the blossom. Was the smile of Amor the source of our first rose or did it fall from the hair of the goddess of dawn, Aurora?
The sweet scent and frowsy beauty of the blossom resulted in it being popular among the rulers of this world. The infamous Cleopatra had her pillows filled with rose petals. Romans used petals to decorate their feasts and even had canopies filled to shower petals upon the guests. Sometimes the Romans love of roses became too much and the shower of petals would actually smother guests.
The Symbolism of Roses
Jewish legends attributed the color of the rose to the first blood that darkened the earths soil. The Teutons believed the rose was a symbol of the underworld and called their battlefields rose gardens.
Sorry to hear that Jane, prayers from Ohio! I've been bad sick to but I think I'm getting better! Got a stomach flu on vacation and it infected/enflamed my diverticulitis so I've been living on antibiotics for the last week... I hope you get better fast!

The April flower is the daisy. Daisies are associated with innocence. The gerbera daisy has large colorful blooms, which has made it a favorite with flower lovers. There is a legend that a nymph wanting to escape unwanted attention, transformed herself into the daisy. Ever after this the April birth flower has the flower meaning of implicity and modesty. An alternate birth flower for April is the sweet pea.
The Gerbera Daisy is a perennial favorite. This daisy and April birth flower is a wonderful flower to design boquets with as it can be the focal point or an accent. The Gerbera Daisy is actually a perennial herb native to South Africa. The Gerbera Daisy is also known as the African Daisy, Transvaal Daisy, Gerb, and Barberton Daisy. It is one of the most popular cut flowers.
Just thought maybe you could use a flower today! If that made ya smile, my mission was accomplished!
The birth flower for March is the Daffodil. In the language of flowers, Daffodils symbolize chivalry, respect, modesty and faithfulness.
Daffodils form a group of large-flowered members of the genus Narcissus. Most Daffodils look yellow, but yellow-and-white, yellow-and-orange, white-and-orange, pink, and lime-green cultivars also exist. Daffodils grow perennially from bulbs. In temperate climates they flower among the earliest blooms in spring: to this extent Daffodils both represent and herald spring. They often grow in large clusters, covering lawns and even entire hillsides with yellow.

That is awesome!!!! I wish I could see the project move along in person. Your story has inspired me to a new level. I've often wondered if what I was doing was ever going to make a difference. Then you came along and told me your story with the kids! Thank you for giving me the encouragement I needed to keep doing what I'm doing. I guess sometimes I just get too much on my plate and wonder what the heck I'm doing with all of this outdoor stuff. If you have any questions regarding the boxes feel free to drop me a line and shoot me a question. Looking forward to the next update!!!!!!

I use to take my kids to Galveston to camp and fish. We would camp under the San Louis pass bridge and fish there and over at Boliver. I was always amazed at how many different kinds of fish we would catch. Mike, if you've got someone catching bait for you ... you might not want to mess that up!! I taught my kides to fish on those zebcos too. They are something with the wear they will take. It's great you're taking the family. I dislike going alone myself. Jane
