Udder Confusion Elverda Lincoln

Udder Confusion is an Alaska homesteader's true-life adventure. "Alaska!" You mean you're going to farm in Alaska? What are you going to harvest, ice and snow? You must be crazy." With these statements from friends and family ringing in our ears, we pointed the Studebaker north. North to Alaska! We arrived in Alaska light on assets, young, vigorous, in good health, and optimistic about the future. Homesteading was exciting and full of experiences and each day was a new Alaska adventure. Life was hard, but we met each problem with determination and ambition. We learned that it isn't what happens to you, it's how you react that matters. Our memories are of hard work, dreams, disappointments, plus many pleasant experiences. Many of our homestead friends are still around and unfortunately some have passed on to the big homestead in the sky. We are in the fall of our years, with the energy of spring chickens, and look forward to our next Alaska adventure.
