A LUNCH TIME WALK ABOUT: If you've been reading the blog you are aware that I have been moaning and groaning about my mid day walks-actually, they are a great break in the day and it is beautiful....but, I do want to get full credit for getting out there in the minus 11 temperature (although today it was more like 12 and I was pulling off my gloves, my hat and unbuttoning by coat).
It was warm enough today to take the camera out-so I took a few pictures. As usual I am disappointed in my inability to capture what I am seeing!
I hope you enjoy the pictures. I am not sure I will be snow shoeing this week so no change of scenery...
The Native Heritage Museum is having the Native Film Festival this weekend and it just sounds to good to pass up. So, right now the plans are:
Friday night-out with the travelers to Sullivans in downtown Anchorage. We love to eat in the bar-the bar menu is cheaper (no food in Alaska is cheap). They have a to die for salad, great beef tips and deserts that I won't even talk about!
Saturday-the Native Film Festival (check out the list of films and their descriptions). Maybe all day there (well, except for my yoga class-can't miss that!)??? This is probably something I'll do by myself although I have met a real nice, real interesting soul sister person, Cathy, that is a case manager in the clinic. She will meet me there for some of the films. We especially want to watch Mystic Ball...supposed to be excellent!
Sunday-a party in Eagle River at some friends of Cathy's. This will be a new experience....it is an olive oil tasting party. Apparently someone has a friend who has added olive trees to her grape vines in her Somona Valley vineyard. She is trying to market her oil so we are all taking our favorite oil and challenging her!
