Progress in the Cold

Our container arrived and is now unloaded with the contents awaiting shipment by small plane.
The Prowler also arrived from Fairbanks, Alaska, strapped to the back of a semi-truck. We got it thawed out, cleaned up (somewhat), and running good. Then we loaded back up in a Uhaul and delivered it to Everts Air Cargo to go out on a DC-6 charter. The Arctic Cat Prowler will be our family's new mode of transportation, taking the place of a car, around Port Alsworth. We were thankfully able to find one with the fully enclosed cab, block heater and cab heater already installed.

  4. Carlon,

    Just a note to say that we're both very happy for you, though Ashley thinks it's a bit nuts to move to Alaska in the winter. Best to you and Bran and the kids, take care and keep in touch.

    Jeremy and Ashley
