Happy Valentine's Day from the Last Frontier! I've been counting down the weeks looking forward to Break-Up season which is not "breaking up" like I used to think of living in the Lower 48. When we first arrived here, we learned that Alaska has three seasons: Summer, Winter, and Break-Up. Break-Up is the exciting time when the temperature starts to stay above 32 degrees above and the snow begins to melt. It can last for more than a month, and one has to wear their tuff-boots everywhere they go. Can you tell I'm excited? It will probably begin at the end of March/early April. Right now the sun is coming up around 9:00 starting to stay up until 5:30! What a blessing this is! It does wonders for my immune system. Have a wonderful Valentine's Day y'all!
