It is not nice outside!!

Don't know what supplies you have access to - but there are little solar wings/panels that are designed to hook up to your battery and trickle into it. Don't know if that would help.

The panels work even if there's no direct sunshine.

Mind you - you're in the land of the midnight sun right now...

Its not a battery issue, it turns over and is firing but not catching. Im hopping my neighbor will be home tommorow so I can borrow a big space heater.

wasilla dosen't seem that far from anchorage (by map anyway) but seems to be much colder!

alaska is an amazing place it seems

Weather wise, comparing Wasilla to Anchorage is like comparing Kenosha to Madison.

Anchorage has had some record low temps in the last week.

Temps can vary by 10 or more degrees in less then a mile anywhere.

Are you doing okay blue? How are you keeping warm? Do you have an electric blanket?

It does get really dry here, more so in the Valley then Anchorage or the bases. The cold is supposed to break early in the week so it should be above zero when your daughter gets to Anchorage.

I have diesel running in the furnace so the house is staying warm. Having the dogs sleep on the bed helps too. Im getting one of the large space heaters from the shop and tarping off the Jeep to warm that up to get it to start today.
