[TheForge] Al McClure - Spam Blocker

Mon Jul 21 18:55:02 2003

Hi Al:

Would've loved to had your daughter drop by for a visit. Sorry the timing
didn't work.

We live 50 miles north of Anchorage on the Parks Highway, between Wasilla
and Houston. The zip is 99687 for map search engines though our section of
Vine road doesn't show, it's only about 10 years old and maps aren't updated
very often.

If you or anybody else is planning a trip to Alaska, you're cordially
invited for a visit. We're pretty centrally located for a base of operations
and you won't have to deal with Anchorage traffic on a daily basis.

Give us a little lead time and a list of what you'd like to do, see, etc.
and Deb and I will be happy to give you the local's tour, contacts, etc.

Frosty
