What a guy
Lol! “It’s melting!” Freakin hilarious Joe R.
I was born in Fairbanks (19 yrs), it’s gotta be the only cool thing other than Chena Hot Springs. Moose meat is the Best!!!! Yummy!!
All I have to say as a present Alaskan resident (born/raised), this place is da BOMB!!! I lived in Hawaii for 31 years & now back home for 5 years & I don’t want to leave again. It’s like no other…The Last Frontier!!!
Everybody who comes here wants to come back to live here. There’s money to be made, it’s not as crowded as the lower 48 & you see wild life & the northern lights all the time unexpectedly. People are nice & there is no traffic. Anchorage is the largest city & that what I’m referring to here. Lots to do if your like Joe in this interview….
❤️💙💛
Man this dude be awesome talk too. I bet he’s got stories for days.
sometimes, rivers have deep potholes, and over time, animals will drown in the river and get swept into the pothole, and then buried by gravel and such. the river keeps moving and someday it moves away from the buried pothole full of bones and gravel and gold. and then 1000's of years later this dude shows up and digs it up.
