Little Chapel in the Woods

Just when I think I've encountered most everything in the Last Frontier, I learn something that completely causes me to stop and reflect on the adaptations Alaskans have made throughout their history in order to survive and prosper.

I learned that once I become an "official" Alaskan resident (July 2011); not only do I get drastically reduced fees on my hunting and fishing licenses, as well as the benefit of sustenance hunting and fishing to my freezer's content, I am also allowed to perform a marriage ceremony for one lucky couple over the course of my lifetime.

Because I don't plan to live out my golden years in this beautiful state, I'm offering my services to any engaged couple who wants to come to Alaska to get married this summer.  Since it has been almost 25 years since I repeated the marriage vows myself;  I'll brush up and make your wedding ceremony definitely memorable. I may not be able to find an Elvis impersonator but I can definitely supply as many Mountain Men as you'd like.  And because Joe can also perform one ceremony in his lifetime; we'll make it a "2 for 1" special!

Any takers?
