Good one


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

That is one of the best videos I have ever watched! Brought back a lot of Alaska memories. Really liked the black and white photography and then the transition to color and then back to black and white!

About Grandpa: "He never talked much, and I think that just added to the mystery of who he was."

Think quite a few of us had a grandpa like that, eh?

One more thought:

Hopefully his wife will continue to tolerate his annual four-month absence.

Nice film. One question: Does he live in AK year round or just return for 4 months of hunting seasons from the lower 48?


The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.

Excellent!
Man, I can relate with the love, you and your grandfather have for the outdoors. I hear the calling, if I miss one day not being in the outdoor doing all those things I live for.
The one thing I cherish the most being in the back country, is the solitary time, the sounds, sights, smells and time to be with nature and it's surrondings.
That really was great tribute and I felt the words you spoke. Very well done.
