Better Days 5
The Moose Range Headquarters was built in 1898 as an Alaska agriculture experiment station, including a residence, barn, woodshed, blacksmith shop and implement shop. The site was used as headquarters for the Kenai National Moose Range -- now the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge -- until 1980, and the World War I Quonset hut was used as staff housing.

This building was in use when we first moved here - we had to go there to get a permit to cut down a tree for the girls' Christmas one year.
oh - and check out my lovely hand - beware speedwalking (40 laps in less than 37 minutes!) and swinging your arms wide in the turns! Ouch!
sorry about the quality. I could not seem to get the bruising to show up very well. I hit the middle knuckle which is now extremely swollen and sore to the touch ( so, don't touch it, Moosie!) I'm using arnica and ice for the swelling and pain, although neither seems to help for long. It'll go away soon, I'm sure.

Ummm... Showing up just fine to this ex-medic, dear.
Isn't 'ice' in Alaska a bit of an oxymoron?
