I remember meeting Lyn the first year I moved to Alaska in 1993 at the Alaska Bar in Juneau. You remined me that I was a "Cheechako" to the great land, and you were grumpy toward me-I suppose in protection of Alaska from the Outside. I lived in Alaska exploring the beauty of this special place for 13 years so I think my Cheechako state has lessened.

The blue bears are a wonder and it would frustrate me when I would hear hunters discussing how they wanted kill these magical creatures.

I look forward reading your book.
