We spent the day in Anchorage. We went to the Mennonite church this morning and then to the downtown market this afternoon with our friends, the Martins. Late afternoon we enjoyed a visit in the home of Nelson and Margaret. We saw fabulous artwork in many forms in their home. Margaret has made marvelous picture quilt wall hangings and she also shared a lovely slide presentation of a recent trip to Tennessee. Nelson has been making beautiful vases out of wood. It was so good to reconnect with them.
We also drove down 4th street in downtown Anchorage, where the Iditarod Sled Race begins every March. Yes, Wilbur had goose bumps.
