In 1943，when I was four，my parents moved from Coeur d'Alene，Idaho，to Fairbanks，Alaska（阿拉斯加），where adventures were never very far away.
We arrived in the summer，just in time to enjoy the midnight sun.All that sunlight was wonderful for Mum's vegetable garden.Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off，so she didn't care much about my bedtime.
Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mum worked there with him.That left me in a mess.I usually managed to find some trouble to get into.Once I had a little fire going in the basement of a hotel.I had tried to light a barrel（桶）of paint but couldn't really get a good fire going.The smoke got pretty bad，though，and when I made my exit，a crowd and the police were there to greet me.The policemen took away my matches and drove me home.
Mum and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me，and they did!I had a tour of the prison until Mum rescued me.I hadn't turned five yet.
As I entered kindergarten，the serious cold began to set in.Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal（金屬）handrail at school？
As for Leonhard Seppala，famous as a dogsledder（拉雪橇者），I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday.At the time I didn't realize what a superstar he was，but I do remember the ride well.I was wrapped（包裹）heavily and well protected from the freezing and blowing cold weather.
In 1950，we moved back to Coeur d'Alene，but we got one more Alaskan adventure when eight years later Leonhard paid a visit to Idaho to invite us to attend a gathering of former neighbors in Alaska.
