The Due North Day

We were a looooong time getting out of Wasilla. First we tried another section of the vast Palmer Hay Flats to find moose but found people salmon fishing in a small tidal stream. Saw them catch a few and one guy wanted to know how we found their spot. “This is a local spot” he said. Back to our parking lot and we toured the Alaska Transportation Museum. A collection in need of shelter and repair. Talkeetna the next stop was an hour north. Quaint collection of homes and businesses and much to look at. Might go back. We did find an interesting business where they make syrup from birch trees. Of course we bought some and tried the birch ice cream. Rather good, actually. Now we are in an over look for the night where - if the weather would cooperate we could see Denali. 

Cadillac’s Most Correct Viewpoint

Well I did a lot of stuff today but I had Paper Birch Ice Cream. What a find. Spectacular. We have birch trees all over Maine. I love my maple but add birch for a change and wow-wee. I am just thinking about birch lattes, birch pancakes, birch toothpaste, birch pasta, birch soup. I might just have to start one of the stores the HP like with lots of ice and birch t-shirts. I will be rich and can hire a driver who will go where I want to go. Not some mountain there are prattling on about all day. Birch ICE CREAM. Oh, and Moose Rights too.
