Uniquely Juneau

Uniquely Juneau



In sorting through the collection of pictures I've taken, there are just a few that don't fit into any larger post other than to say that they represent the uniqueness of this place we now call home.  Like this flower arrangement above.  Everyone wears rain boots, particularly xtratuffs, to any and all occasions.  I've never seen such versatile footwear.  It can get you from walking the dog, to church, even out to dinner & a movie.  It seems only appropriate that it should be part of your home decor as well.


This is the view at preschool drop-off.  Cora checks out the status of the lake every morning as we drive by.  Is it clear and glassy, is it choppy and rainy, is there fog covering it...and then, a reminder not to miss the driveway for her school.


There are these coffee drive thru's.  It's like an ATM for coffee.  They are everywhere.  Here's one of our favorites because not only does it have great coffee for the grown-up, the girls get hot chocolates complete with whipped cream and lollipop lids.




















And this sign has cracked me up since the first time we drove Egan Highway back from downtown.  As it turns out, I guess I shouldn't have laughed too hard because the used car Sherry bought when we moved here came with studded tires.  But more about that later; snow preparations definitely merit their own blog post.
