The "tropical depression" thing always makes me laugh. Sure, I understand it's an area of low pressure or whatever, but shouldn't it be "tropical uprising" or something like that? Deep thoughts, I know...
Hey Mike, you may find this mildly amusing. Remember that half-finished freeway here, the Richardson Highway? I was just reading that it used to have a lot more accidents before some of the current interchanges were added, there used to be a lot more at-grade intersections.
I'm also looking at a house which practically has the Richardson right next to it, but I don't care. Tiny little pan abode fake log cabin with a bathroom added; many homes here literally have no toilets if you can actually believe that! It's just a Fairbanks area thing though. Mainly because it gets so cold it's hard to have city water, it'll just freeze in the winter. This place has a holding tank, which is also really common; you have to truck your water. I could live with that though honestly.
OSB floors, sagging roof, place looks ramshackle but for the ridiculously cheap asking price I may go for it.
