Thinking about moving to Alaska...

And there are (quite literally) 10 men for every woman. It's so bad, my 60-year old aunt in Alaska is dating a 35-year-old dude. It's a great place for women to move to, but if you're looking for any kind of action with someone not named Jackie Palmer, you're heading towards dire straits.

Anchorage is the best if you ask me. Big city small town feel but you have plenty of stuff to keep you entertained.

You dont lose your women just your turn. Anchorage is a good midsize city think the population is around 280,000. Fishing is great up there and plenty to do if you like the outdoors. Starting in early june IIRC salmon start running and you have until midaugust until they IIRC but you have king salmon run first then red salmon then the Silver Salmon run. Its a great way to spend your time and enjoy the scenerio just be warned you wont be alone when fishing. I have been elbow to elbow at times fishing which is a pain. But if you can go where others dont its great.

In the winter it can get depressing unless you keep active. Get a snow machine and go riding its great fun and again the scenery cant be beat. Also you can icefish in the winter, ski or snowboard, crosscountry skiing, or if you get into the right bunch of people dogsledding. Or do like me in the winter and go out to the bars. They have some good ones up there.

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
