On Juneau - Day 29
I’ve always wanted to go to Juneau, Alaska. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s my fascination with the idea of a city that you can’t drive into or out of. There’s something weirdly anachronistic about that idea, like it’s somehow separate from modern society. Add to that the fact that it’s the capital of the state and it’s just kind of an interesting mix. Plus I hear it’s really beautiful up there, and the people are very genuine. I wouldn’t want to live someplace that remote, but I’d love to visit. Not now; not in the winter. In the summer. Maybe take a train up north as well; I hear you can do that. I’ve never had any reason to go there, and likely I never will, so if I want to do it, it’s going to have to be like my trip to Denver; I’m just going to have to do it on a whim.
If anybody has any suggestions about how to get there or what to do if I went for a long weekend, drop me a line, I’d love to hear about it!
