Carl Francis Ivey moved to Alaska in 1959, and is where he lives today. After finishing school in Anchorage I became a Driller then an Environmental-Tech. These occupations sent me all over Alaska for about 40 years, from the North Slope to the Aleutian Islands and from the Tongass in Southeast to the Kuskokwim and Yukon Rivers of the Interior. It is a tuff place to call home and I am glad it is my Home!
