..for a few brave souls. Anderson, Alaska is offering 26 free lots to those who can build a house within 2 years. Sounds beautiful, but WAY too cold for this south Texan. (Brrrr!) Here's the link to the Anderson, Alaska website: http://www.anderson.govoffice.com/ and the link to the CNN.com story: http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/03/16/alaska.land.ap/index.html

I'd do it in a heartbeat, but can't afford to build a house in that amount of time...unless it was one of those super tiny ones we had a thread about earlier...
