    Default Hot times in Northern Alaska.

    click to enlarge..


    110 degrees in solarium at 4:30

    cucumbers, rhubarb, tomatoes cruising right along..
    ---------------------------------------
    This is what cucumbers, rhubard, tomatoes looked like 9 dys ago..


    Of course having 24 hrs of daylight helps gardens also...

    I'm not the best at taking pictures, as you can see..

    I've always had this weird idea in my head that Alaska rarely ever gets warm...but I guess it gets way hotter than I thougt it did.

    Have you ever sailed across the sea to Russia? lol

    I think its really close...I'm gonna go check a map.

    Yeah, I did too when I was young. One of my best friends in college was from Juno and he corrected my misunderstanding. Beautiful land, Alaska, and runs a comfortable range of temps.
