If We Were In Wrangell...

Scott says I need to stop saying that.

There are many things we miss in Wrangell, mainly our dear friends there, but there are many things to embrace in Juneau as well, and I need to focus on that a little more. One of these many things is First Friday – a night that falls on the first Friday of every month when Juneau-ites get to peruse new art exhibits, explore the capital’s museums for free during usual closed times, and sample some light appetizers.

Here is one of the pieces from the exhibit, “Thread,” which is displayed at the Juneau-Douglas City Museum, that particularly caught our eye:

I wish I had taken more pictures of Trevor Gong’s flies as they were all exquisitely put together and likely took hundreds and hundreds of hours of meticulously detailed, tiring, and gratifying work.

The next night, Scott and I hit the town and saw a live performance of singer-songwriter John Elliot at the Rookery Café. Live music performances were few and far between in Wrangell, so it is nice to live in a place where these events are more common.

We rounded out the weekend with a Sunday walk in the forest and along the beach before the Superbowl.
