Get ready for rain!! Sitka is a temperate rain forest, averages 9 FEET Of rain annually, it's also a very small town, around 2000 residents. That said I would move back if my wife would go. Fishing, hunting and sights you won't see other places.

You might enjoy the DVD Paddle to Seattle which starts in Alaska. Also Louis L'Amore's novel Sitka.
