When I was in Anchorage, I spent a lot of money on food to fill my shelves for the winter season. I had two totes that I filled to the 70 pound max and a smaller 20 pound box of food that I mailed to myself before I left. Then when I came home I had a tote box full of meat, one full of dairy and produce and another filled with new warm clothes and more food. Yesterday the mailed items arrived along with two boxes of food I had ordered from Amazon a month ago. Good thing it was my turn to get the mail for the office so I could use the work truck to bring it all home. I spent the night reorganizing cupboards to get it all on shelves. The shelves are now are bulging and I should be good for a while I hope.
Today we are suppose to get a very big storm. It is suppose to be snow and freezing rain and lots of wind. 25 -30 mph in the morning with expected gusts up to 50 mph and by evening wind speeds will be 35 -50 mph with gusts up to 70 mph. This will be my first real storm in Alaska. Good thing the food arrived. Who knows how long it will take to before planes fly again. And I have the next three days off so I am just going to snuggle up with my wildlife reports, enjoy my Anchorage treats, and watch the wind blow.
Just a side note: Happy Veterans Day to all those who give up their time to protect ours! Thank You!
