Hello from Alaska

@baymule What breed of hair sheep do you have? Raising them for dairy, meat, both? Or are they organic lawn mowers?

Sounds like a great start!

This is going to be a stupid question, but here goes: Is Alaska an expensive place to live?

My sister and her husband are talking about moving to Alaska - they will need to be near Anchorage. I have always heard it is expensive to live in Alaska, but she says Anchorage is expensive but some of the surrounding areas aren't so bad. It would seem that it would be pricey - since most everything needs to be shipped in.

was last in 15 July. The suspense of life in Alaska is killing me.

I was under the impression that much of the infrastructure in Alaska is paid for by the oil industry. So, property, income, and sales taxes may be much less.

Yeah and you don't have to pay Dick for the privilege of buying something at the store.
