Sharp's Travels
We were out and about early this morning. We went to breakfast with Dick & Marie at the Cookie Jar Restaurant. It was off the beaten path and we found the food to be excellent there. It gave us a chance to enjoy the morning and visit a bit.
Later in the morning Gay helped Dick repair his shower and I went to check out the material at the Alaskan Fur Co. I bought one small piece of material and was not impressed with the layout of their store. They had a lot of their material setting on the floor. It made it too hard to check it all out.
We decided to get a few of our errands done. We got a fresh tank of LP, and then headed for the Harley Dealer. Gay wanted to get a tee-shirt from Alaska. He found 1 long sleeve and 1 short sleeve shirt that say Farthest North Outpost for Harley-Davidson. He also checked out the motorcycles. A bike like ours here is $3,000 more than what you could buy one in Florida for!
We stopped by the Alaskan Bowl Factory. We watched the manufacturing process through the in store viewing windows, and also the process of burning the designs on their products. The bowls were all too expensive for us, but we did pick up some Alaska Pure Birch Syrup and a cookbook on Sourdough everything.
I got Gay to stop and take a couple of pictures of the flowering cabbage at the Alaskan Fur co. The flowers here are all so big and beautiful.
We needed to pick up a few groceries, so we headed for Fred Meyers. It’s like a big Wal-Mart. They have everything. With that job done we headed back to the campground, put the groceries away and were ready to head out again.
We picked up Issie and off we went to the Quilt shops. Material up here is very expensive. I did buy a few choice pieces, along with a couple of patterns.
We had a note on our door when we returned. It was an invitation to dinner at Big Daddy’s BBQ. This place had been featured on the food channel as well as Good Morning America. We tried the chicken, brisket, and the ribs. Gay says the ribs were the best he has ever had. Everything was excellent.
It was another beautiful day with friends.
