After moving to Washington State when I was 12, I had a very hard time adjusting; it was culture shock and Alaska at that time was about 20 years behind the Lower 48, in many ways.<br /><br />I guess we always wish for something a little different than what we have...it always sounds so much more exciting somewhere else!<br /><br />Thanks for dropping by.Miriam Robbinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12021845886261585678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38696983.post-68168978492209995682009-10-21T16:10:01.692-07:002009-10-21T16:10:01.692-07:00What a neat childhood you had!
