Alaska Snow

Have you been following Alaska's great snow fall?  After graduating law school my best friend from childhood, Zach,  moved with his wife to Alaska.  They now have a house, a baby son, a vegetable garden, and a few animals.  I think they're set up to be in Alaska for life. 

My husband was aware of the incredible snow storm, and he told me to check on Zach.  I emailed him to make sure he was still alive.  Here's his reply, which I wanted to share, because although our childhoods were very similar our adult life is completely different:

"Alive. It's been a ridiculous winter:  snow waste deep in the yard, boilers breaking, pipes freezing, plow truck transmissions going out, moose attacking and damaging [his wife's] car (no, that's not a joke), moose tearing down the animal fence - twice, and the list goes on. Texas ain't lookin' too bad at this point!!!"
