We arrived in Anchorage late last night after 10 days in IL for my Mom's funeral. Was really hard to say good-bye to Dad, but have the comfort that my brothers and sisters-in-law are close by along with his wonderful "family" at Stonecroft. Today is our daughter-in-law, Brooke's birthday.
Happy Birthday, Brooke
Happy Birthday, Brooke
The flowers are absolutely spectacular here in Anchorage...........they are everywhere and oh-so-lush!
Hanging baskets on every light pole

We walked around the Anchorage Market & Festival which is held every Saturday/Sunday - many vendors selling their wares - warm, soft ear muffs at this booth
And some furry slippers. There were lots of food booths, too, selling everything from reindeer hot dogs to salmon quesadillas to moose/elk burgers. Downtown Anchorage is full of touristy shops and restaurants. We shopped for groceries at Fred Meyer and went to 5:30 Mass at Holy Family Cathedral.

Pat: So glad your trip was good and you made it back without any trouble. Bob and I loved Anchorage and yes, the flowers on all the light posts were beautiful. We ate at a great restaurant. I think the name was Blondies. Had the best Halibut dish and you know I am not a fish eater, but this was great. The restaurant was on the street where the Iditarod starts and might be at the corner where it starts. Hope you get some rest and good travels. Love, Judy
