The 49th Estate is our answer to MTV's "Cribs," a weekly tour of Alaska homes and interviews with their owners. |
The Grimsley family -- Sgt. Paul Grimsley, his wife Pearl, Christina, Saul and Karl -- live just off Tudor Road in Anchorage with their three dogs: Kona, Gretel, and Buster.
Paul is a federal computer programmer for the Army. Pearl is a customer service representative at Tri-Care Health Alliance. Christina, the oldest child, is a barista at UAA. Her two younger brothers attend Highland Tech High School; Saul is a senior and Karl is a freshman.
The Grimsleys have owned their house for two and a half years. They just finished remodeling the upstairs bathroom, which is now divided into two rooms for maximum privacy and efficiency.
