Day 56, Wednesday, 8/12: It really feels like fall here, with leaves changing color and starting to drop! Seems odd for mid-August. Made another quick stop at Wal-Mart and then met John and Dale at a quick mart near their home. They live off of some back roads and they said the kids knock the street signs down so they came to get us…
They are wonderful people who have an ‘animal house’! 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 horses and bunnies. They live on a lake and have a small airplane at their dock as well as a small boat. Dale and I went to the Wednesday market in Wasilla and bought some fresh veggies and strawberries. We had fresh strawberry margaritas and I made enchiladas for dinner. Dale had baked a cake. It was a great evening (what we remember of it after going through ½ gal. of tequila!!!
John is a retired Anchorage police officer and Dale works out of their home with the marine industry. She has a wonderful office upstairs with a view of the lake and the mountains! We had a great time visiting with them.
