Summary
A retired law enforcement officer turned pilot and a former math teacher chose to leave their home in Texas for a cabin in the wilderness of Alaska. They left life as they knew it behind to start fresh in the land of the Last Frontier. Their cabin on Cub Lake was only accessible by bush plane in the summer or snow machine during the winter, making life challenging. They knew their learning curve would be steep. What they didn't realize was living on a homestead in the wilderness of Alaska would make them face obstacles they had never experienced before.
This new chapter forced them to take every skill that they had learned in their lives to the next level. Hunting, fishing, gardening, and flying would all become key to thriving off the grid. Arctic temperatures and wild animals in the Alaska bush provided countless adventures. These tales may make you laugh, make you cry, and might possibly inspire you to follow your own dreams!
While enjoying the majestic nature surrounding them, they also learned to work together like never before. The two of them have dealt with everything from crazy chickens to bears, and ultimately even looked death squarely in the eyes. Throughout it all, Ann knew there was no place she would rather be than with Shon when he suggested, "Follow me to Alaska".

Really enjoyed
A really nice honest portrayal of their move. It may not have had the intricacies of the daily life but definitely gave an overarching description. Very enjoyable

I would Follow
This is a great listen for anyone who has a sense of adventure. Ann and her husband shared their story right from the start where life needed to change for them both. they flipped their life literally from living in full luxury .... running water roads supermarkets the usual basics we call them, to shipping what was needed for survival along with a few memories of their past life to Alaska.
The story details their struggles and strength to endure and come out positive and better for the most.You get involved in all their daily tasks and chores and marvel at what can be achieved with the help they get from the strong community who just turn up and get the job done.It takes a special attitude to want to live in remote places with limited resources and to share in the highs and lows of this ongoing adventure was a gift.
