I went out to the Pioneer Home this afternoon to give a presentation about historic sites along the road system in Eastern Interior Alaska. This was a return engagement. I was there last October talking about historic sites around Fairbanks. That went well, so the residents invited me back.

I feel honored. Many of the residents at the Pioneer Home have lived the history that I talk about. One fellow I chatted with after the presentation told me he had worked at one of the sites I talked about. He even verified some of the information I presented, which until that moment had merely been unsubstantiated information passed along to me as possibly being true.

Anyway, I had a great time, and am sure that I will return. Thank you Paul (my son and in-house computer guru) for making all the equipment work!
