APR 1, 22 .. HOMESICK FOR ALASKA .. PART 2

To quote Robert W. Service my favorite poet ..

Now a promise made is a debt unpaid ..

In yesterday's Post, I promised you all that today I would answer the question : Are we homesick to be in Alaska?

As I showed yesterday, Springtime in Alaska can be absolutely beautiful.






Then we texted our neighbor up in Anchorage and asked her to send us a few photos of what winter around our Condo was looking like this week.

Below are the photos we received !



In the below photo, we are looking back at our bedroom window.



In light of the above photos, and in order to have our minds clear, Patti and I went out by our swimming pool at our motel here in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, to discuss whether or not we really wanted to go home to Alaska at this time.




"Can you believe it Patti? It looks like rain here in Lake Havasu City, Arizona."




And then the skies opened up and we had some real rain!


In the below photo, our swimming pool is to the left.




Amazing! Absolutely, positively Amazing.

Then the sun came out and just look at the day!

Below we are looking across at our swimmng pool.




Before reaching its final decision, Our Jury took one more look at what the area around our Condo up in Alaska looks like right now !


Our Jurys Decision : Stay put down in Arizona.

Although we are more than a little homesick for Alaska, we will do just that, stay put here. We are considering heading North To Alaska around the middle of April.

All Smiles .. Cap and Patti

MAR 31, 22 .. HOMESICK FOR ALASKA .. PART 1


I sit here asking myself : "Do I really owe anyone an explanation for the recent lack of activity here on blogspot?" Perhaps not but here comes one.

If you could care less about the below wanderings of my mind, just scroll down past the dotted line and look at the photos of springtime in Alaska. 

I began a Post here last March the 13th. Was it a Friday the 13th? No! It was a Sunday! So there goes the curse of 'Friday the 13th' being the reason for this long delay in activity here on blogspot.

I know that some, perhaps many, of you do NOT read our other web sites and so you don't know, and possibly or even probably aren't interested in our daily life drama.

And that is as it should be. I began this website back ten or so years ago on October the 22nd 2011.

http://bobbacaps.blogspot.com/2011/10/for-what-its-worth-1-october-22-2011.html

My purpose  being to share the travel adventures (at that time I was over in India) that I have had with those of you who haven't had the opportunity to travel as much as I have. My purpose was NOT to share any personal day to day life challenges. Those are over on dot.net.

In the ensuing ten years, some of you have been with Patti and me (in addition to a number of visits to India) to Hong Kong, South Korea, Mongolia, Russian Siberia as well as to various states of the United States with an emphasis on seeing Alaska where Patti and I reside.

After some 14 months out of the United States visiting Russian Siberia, South Korea, Hong Kong and Mongolia, I returned to the United States on December the 10th 2019.

And then came the Covid 19 Pandemic.  

Little did I know, that when I got off the flight from Seoul South Korea to Seattle Washington and went to the Emergency Room in Seattle the very next day, December the 11th 2019, very ill, that I had Covid 19 which I contacted in either Mongolia or South Korea enroute home. 

So what Captain?

Simply this : I haven't been out of the United States since then so I have had nothing to share about life abroad.

Captain you published 14 Posts in January 2022!

This is precisely why I shouldn't be boring you with all of this nonsense! That belongs over on dot.net!

Are Patti and I homesick for Alaska? Are we tired of the Arizona Desert?

Spring is beginning in Alaska.

Today's Rhetorical Question : Are we homesick to be in Alaska?















Today's Rhetorical Question :  Are we homesick to be in Alaska?

Tomorrow, Friday (it's not an April Fools Day joke) April 1st we will tell you more.

Post Script : Just in case those of you who do not follow us on dot.net are interested, the below link will give you some idea of why I have been idle the past three weeks.
