Skagway
Alaska
Lest
you think that we are completely bereft of amenities here
in the frozen north...
We have a fine new car wash. It is, of course, of no value
to us, since we have no car.
And
we have a handy video rental establishment. Which is, likewise,
of no value to us, since we have no TV.
We also have 3 radio stations - two of which are the same.
One AM station from Juneau and 2 FM NPR "Radio for
the Upper Lynn Canal" stations. We do have a radio!
This is Friday for us and the Summer Solstice. Skagway
is not north of the Arctic Circle so the sun does set -
but not for long. And, it does not get dark.
