I have been to Alaska one time, and I want to go back.
This was in June, mind you. I’m not sure I would do well there now, in the dead of winter. The snow, ice and frigid temperatures we are experiencing just don’t seem to be my favorite things these days.
Call it getting older if you want to (I won’t), but I can do without all this Jack London weather. (If you don’t know what that means, go look it up,)
So while we are talking about some of my least favorite things, let’s bring up this trait of some people wishing their life away. “I can’t wait for this” or “I can’t wait for that” seems to be more and more in vogue. Hunters and fishermen, I notice, have picked up this bad habit. We are constantly wishing for a hunting season or a time of year to get here.
Slow down, folks! The days go by quickly, and the older you get, the faster it goes. (For you kids out there, I didn’t believe it either when I was young.)
