A Baker's Dozen



We've been here in Sitka five days now. We have rented a house near downtown so we will be walking as much as before in Ellensburg. Simon has been in school for two days and he likes it here. Kami has spent some time at her new job and Jimmie has been busy applyin for a substitute teaching position with the school districe. There are many changes of address, utilities and other forms to complete. Everyone here seems very helpful and friendly.









Our new address:



Jimmie Froehlich, Kami Hutchins 
  and Simon Froehlich
716 A Biorka Street
Sitka AK  99835



Our container was delivered to our house on Friday and we have the weekend to empty it and find places for all our stuff. Our new home does not have a garage or very much storage space. It was reassuring to begin unloading and see our things again. Our biggest concern, Simon's bass, seems to have made it in great shape. We have many boxes yet to unload.


This concludes the Moving part of the Moving to Sitka Blog. Perhaps a new blog will replace it, maybe Living in Sitka. We'll see.


Thanks for reading.

  1. VICTOIRE ! Sitka les voilà ! nice house in the suburb (is there any suburb in Sitka ? or a center downtown in Sitka ?) biorka st; far in in Aleutians islands...
    The House looks nice, a view on the hill ( any fool on the hill for the Beatles fans..) a view of the ocean ???

    By the way what 's the use of a house? a container is cheaper and you wouldn't have to unpack, you already had all boxes in it ! No storage, no garage => no garbage ! adopt a new rule of life : last in fist out, one nail eject another one, a book or cd that gets in is a book or a cd out ! do it the "appartement parisien" way !

    ready to read Living in Sitka !

    F de paris !

  2. Well here I am on the site, I must be signed in somehow...I enjoyed reading about your trip, and seeing you. If you see this note before you leave Anchorage, give me a jingle...for some reason I can't remember WHEN you are leaving or left! LOL. Take care!

  3. This will probably sound crazy but I came across your blog while researching how to move to Sikta (my wife and I are moving there in 2 months). And we are looking to rent the exact same home you rented!
    I was wondering if you could tell me a little about the house, neighborhood, ect. Is there a fenced in yard (we have 2 dogs)? Thanks for you time.
