Saw A Mysterious Light Beyond Point Spencer...
We went to Teller in afternoon. Sled turned over on the way. Wesley went with dogs after deer. Had ptarmigan for supper. Saw mysterious light again. I think it is a star.

Dad, Me & Mom Circa 1942, Teller Mission |
That's my Mom - always watching the weather and the sky. We moved to Teller Mission in 1939 when I was just a year old. My Dad, John Wesley, Sr., was a teacher with the Alaska Native Service and Mom was along for the adventure. What an amazing time it was - the war, the weather, living the Alaska life. Guess once you've lived it, it never gets out of your system. Maybe that's why doing business in Alaska is like coming home. And maybe that's why it always means that
@ Bonanza - Alaska wins!
