Lisa and I went down to the Anchorage Festival and Market this weekend. This place is pretty cool, and the really cool thing about it is there is no one that sells the same stuff we do!! There is lots of hand-made stuff made out of wood, and lots of animal skins made up into hats, boots, shoes and jackets, but no one sells soaps, or hand-made watches, or wire wraps jewelry. There is lots of Native American crafts, and jewelry with seed beads, and a few crystals.
One of the great things about this market is the free live entertainment that plays from 10 in the morning till 6 in the evening. They had this life sized box with a hole labeled donations, and this little finger poking out to encourage everyone to contribute. It was so cute, you had to donate!
Although we plan on settling in Seward or Homer, we may come back up to Anchorage on the weekends during the summer so we can participate in this market.
You can arrange to take a glacier tour here and even send your fish home. Lots of tourists, and lots of places to eat.
We are waiting for Lisa's boat to sell so that we can move. Need to do that before it starts snowing, and they say winter is coming early this year. I can believe that, cause its chillier than its ever been since we got here (according to the locals)
Thanks, Sonny and Jackie for the care packages you sent. Cigarettes are $75.00 a carton here in Anchorage so we appreciate you thinking of us!
We miss you all, we love you
