FC: How to manage winters in Bethel

1: Managing winters can be very difficult however I look forward to the day of no running water, my humble outhouse and no cell service.

2: Winters can be brutal with no snow in February so we full advantage when there is snow by hopping on the runners and riding off into the wild.

3: Family is another thing that keeps me trucking through the winters. Temperatures dropping well below 40 and the lack of sun can lead to a long, and cold winter. Vacations are refreshing and reminders of how much I love living in this cold, isolated town. Who needs a Wal-Mart or McDonald to survive?

4: Fresh spring water in Takotna and spending a week with my father with no interruptions or electronics leads to ultimate happiness.
