Anna came to Alaska via a large military family. She raised 4 children to love everything outdoors. When they werent on a baseball field, their weekends were spent traveling to whatever corner of Alaska the outdoor event called for. There were also many memories made on the family boat out of Seward. The days adventures always ended with sitting around the campfire laughing about the fish that got away or whos snowmachine they had to dig out.
Anna and her husband are now empty nesters with their two dogs Nelli and Kiska. You can find her family still swapping stories around a campfire, only now it takes a caravan of campers to get them all there!
