[@LindsySweat-Grayson]

GREAT VIDEO. Thank You. I love how you use the natural sounds and not extra music. Thanks again from a SE-AK Girl.

I live there!!!

[@randytucker3083]

I need to go back badly. People are great there!

Indeed, the human capital is really high in that part of Alaska.

Sure hasn't changed much since i was there from 1978 to 1992

[@badideaman]

Dramatic changes since 1978. I married one of their blondes and had 4 kids there. Now, it's gay town, full of environmental communists!

Does PFI still exest? Thanks

Apparently still in business

[@Seastar14TheWitch]

You could kidnap me, bring me there, and I'd believe I was still in Norway. Edit: If it weren't for all the american flags xD

Haha, true in many aspects! Norwegian coast villages never feel so remote and desolated though, there's a stronger sense of connectedness in Norway. But you're right, and that's the reason why Norwegians come here and manage to retain their heritage.

It is on an island in the panhandle and it is not as remote as you think. It is near Wrangel, Juneau. It has a hardware store, high school with gym, a library, a pizzaria, bars, thrift shops, and people actually retire there. There is a big fishery there used to be Icycle seafoods. They process salmon in the summers. They have a safeway and a large post office, airfield which lands big planes

@@markscott4830 It is not too remote by Alaskan standards. If a town has regular jet service by Alaska Airlines, it cannot be too remote. You can live in Petersburg and enjoy civilization. But it is not exactly Homer or Wasilla either.

@@markscott4830 *Wrangell its okay, even the AMHS spell the town wrong.
