I should have posted something before this, but things are still a bit unsettled here in Anchorage. Lauren and Abby have arrived and are settled into the Temporary Living Facility until they find a house. We should know on Monday if the only family ahead of them on the waiting list for on-base housing will be taking the house or not. Things look promising because the housing office reports that they apparently moved out of the Temporary Living Facility (TLF), so it's reasonable to assume they've moved to a permanent off-base home. Anyway, the housing office will be trying to contact them on Monday, so by the end of business Monday Andy and Lauren should know if they have a place to stay. Do pray they get a call on Monday asking, "Are you ready to look over your new home?"
Just as a back-up, this afternoon (just as soon as Abby awakes from her nap) we're going to check out housing between here and Palmer.
Day before yesterday, we spotted a moose and her baby walking across the road near Gate 3 (close to the base golf course). I didn't have my camera with me, so sorry I can't show you a picture, but instead I can offer this picture we took between Fort Nelson and Haines Junction, Yukon.

were people playing golf on the golf course at the time? I wonder if they are given tips on what more to do with the golf club if approached by a moose, especially a moose momma protecting her baby??
I thought it was Elmendorf, as in ELM tree, have I been misspelling it?
Joyce, you have it correct:

My mistake -- I guess I didn't proofread. There are woods between the road and the golf course, but I can well imagine they have problems with moose on the course. I suppose the moose are just considered hazards of the course ... kind of like the sand traps.
Aw yes, the merry-go-round of military housing. I remember finding that they had lost our name on the list after waiting 2 years to get into housing. I almost got my ex-husband busted back to private when I threw a Wall-eyed-hissy fit in the housing office. Have you ever seen a Wall-eye throw a fit? It isn't pretty

You? A walleye? No way! A largemouth bass? ... maybe ...
