I have found no end to the warmth I have experienced here in Alaska. The sense of teamwork, generosity and cooperation is without end, and it is without a second thought. Any concern I have had has been met with response, any need, provided for, and every smile given, returned. The natives are kind, but there is something more. I think it is something deeper, more fundamental. I think it is derived from survival instinct. In any event, the humble town of Barrow and its outlying points have resonated with me, and it is probably more than a little naive to believe that all of Alaska is like this, but it is a definite welcome breath from pretense of home.
