I just can't make up my mind

 Hi folks, I tell you getting this old is crazy, I can't figure out where to start. I have so much work here and now adding the move to N.Y. is driving me batty, lol. I'm pretty sure the move won't be this year, probably next Spring. I am thinking about keeping my properties here in Alaska so I can come back for vacations to fish and whatever else. Right now I am putting ground cover on the back property to have it filled in. I cut that short because the winds creeped up on me and the covering just blew around.

                                    I got dandelions this year

                         I like the flower, it brightens my property up

                                       Do you see the Butterfly?

                        Here are flowers I bought for my window box

My dinner is Battered Cod, vegetables and tarter sauce.

Yep! I started cleaning up my shop and now I can walk through it, lol. It still needs some more work.

Cutting the high grass with my new battery operated weed eater. I like it, it's quiet, light and cuts just fine with an automatic string spool.

Well, I had more photos but, for some reason, they're gone. I am having more problems with this new computer and I am going to stop using it. From now on, I am using my phone to take pictures and download them. I hope this will entertained you somewhat until I can get my "****" together. Excuse my French, lol. Take care.

Really changing things up.....FINAL DECISION

 Hi Folks, I have been giving a lot of thoughts about my life and what I am going to do about it. Over the years I have really enjoyed sharing my life and adventures and the beautiful and not so beautiful [me]out in remote Alaska. It was tons of fun. Since I moved onto the road system, I find myself changing and not as happy as I once was

 I am just not motivated as I once was and it has depressed me a lot. I am just not motivated anymore. Because of my exposure to Agent Orange, my health is affected some aspects of my life. My PTSD has increased and I have problems remembering things, tremors in my hands and balancing issues. I have been seeing two therapists one at the Veterans Center and one at the Veterans Administration for a few years and they have been a big help to me.

 They noticed a big change in me since I returned from visiting my sister, niece, nephews and their children. We discussed this in length and come to the conclusion that I miss them so much. Anyway, my sister and I have been talking at length on the phone and sometimes spent hours talking and I have decided to move closer to my sister and kids. I have already started looking for property close by. I don't want to live in a city environment so, I am looking at properties in the Adirondacks which is a 5,000,000 acre State Park in Upstate, N.Y. It has been set in N.Y. State law, this park will remain forever wild and people are allowed to own property there but, no manufacturing is allowed, only small businesses.

 The whole park has only 2 lane driving with only a 30-45 mph speed limit. You are only allowed to build structures that conform with the Wilderness setting. I am not sure I will sell both my Alaska properties or not but, I think I will sell my remote cabin or donate it to a Veterans Org. to use for disabled Vets. I will eventually sell my town cabin, I think or trade for a cabin in the Adirondacks.

 I do know that once I make this change, I positive, my health will be better and things will be more positive and I won't be lonely for sure. I really do hope you all understand and support my decision, if not, oh well. Thanks.
