Time of my life? Well, nope. But it sure wasn't a prison sentence either. Being from southwestern B.C. I was absolutely petrified about going somewhere where it doesn't rain in the winter (just like most other southern B.C.ians). I found the Yukon to be cold, but not uncomfortably so. Lots of flying, but flying over some of the most fantastic scenery doing so-- I must have flown with an awestruck look on my face the first two months-- I filled up 3 photo albums in one summer! Heard horror stories about the North being horribly expensive but I thought the Yukon was reasonable-- car insurance was dirt cheap and groceries reasonable-- gas was pricy and so was Northwest Tel! Like anything the memories get better as time goes on-- would love to take the wife up on a vacation there-- even toyed with the idea of trying to get a flying job up there again-- but I wonder how the wife (who is from down south-- way down south (20 degrees celcius is cold for her) would take it????
