We have double wides here on < 2 acres going for > $300k! Not knocking them, I owned one in NC and it was pretty nice, but $300k?

300 THOUSAND DOLLARS ??????????????????????????????
It would be cheaper to buy one in the Lower 48 and truck it up to Alaska!

Hey I would build you one and ship it for less...and...nicer

I held a trappers workshop in Emonnak yesterday..attendance was very low,..but one of the first to arive was a young man by the name of Brian Lathum..one of the nicest guys I ever met..
..I was hoping to sit down and let him take over

Brian is a good guy, everyone can learn a thing or two from him for sure.

I would like to see him hold a wolf trapping workshop here. How young was Brian? The one I know has kids in their early twenties. I wonder if it was his son??

Might be his Son,...I would guess he was in his 40s

Brian is quite a trapper! He was the ATA Trapper of the Year just a few years ago. Heck of a nice guy too.

Pete

No, that's the man himself! Yup, he was the ATA TOY just a few years ago. Super nice guy that's full of info.

Interested in the Manufactured Home {mobile} statements above since I have a community with 206 spaces.

For all the former New Yorkers in AK :


"new defibrillators in the town clerk’s office were put to good use recently when a taxpayer had chest pains and was taken by ambulance to the hospital."

Yes, Property Taxes in NY have gotten so high that people have gotten chest pains when paying their taxes !!!

The vast majority of the mobiles we have here on Kodiak are old old. The funny thing is that many sit on some of the best real estate in town. Ocean views, bluff lots etc. The high doller ones I spoke of are high priced due to location.

I don't know how it would work in Kodiak, but around here, when the Mobile Homes (or, Manufactured Homes, depending on what the salesman wants to call them ), get to be a certain age, the parks often will buy the homes at market value from the owners and then bring in brand new Double Wides . It is a good marketing tool for the Mobile Home Parks

Any news from the mighty hunters?

How much does it cost to get a drivers license in AK and how much are the vehicle registration fees ?

$20 for the basic drivers license. Vehicle registration fees depend on where you live. $100.00 for passenger vehicles is the base...

Anchorage and probably other cities have additional fees that jack the price up somewhat.

My CDL is $100

Anyone heard of Kings of the North Taxidermy?

Just saw that sign yesterday driving by it. It is on International, in the building and spot something else used to be, might have been hunter fisher???

Not sure though, never heard of them before that.

Thanks, just wanted to make sure they were a real place. He is apparently opening a new shop and wants me to make hats for him! YaY!! Finally a break for me... I needed some orders!
