Only in Alaska...

{Only in Alaska} 
Is there a beautiful view like this downtown, with snow capped mountains glittering in the distance.

 {Only in Alaska}
Is there a rack of this many guns in the middle of the Outdoor Section of Walmart.

 {Only in Alaska}
Are there this many knives on display for immediate sale, also in the Outdoor Section of Walmart.

Does my husband come out of Super Cuts looking instead like he came out of the early nineties.

 {Only in Alaska}
Is there a "Reindeer Favorites" section of the Denny's menu.  
Reindeer omelet anyone?

 {Only in Alaska}
Do they ice skate inside on a pink rink.

 {Only in Alaska}
Do they serve you {delicious} pizza on a plate with a moose on it!

 {Only in Alaska}
Are they cuh-razy about driving one way in parking lots.

 {Only in Alaska}
Do they have plug ins on their bumpers to warm their cars up during arctic temperatures.

 {Only in Alaska}
Is there Snow Melt sections of the sidewalk where one can stand on a patch of pavement that is not frozen or iced over.

{Only in Alaska}
Do the fire hydrants have huge red & white striped poles sticking out of the top so they can be located after the road has been plowed & the actual hydrant is buried in five feet of snow.

Good grief.
What have I gotten myself into???

Sometimes you can be served food on that VERY plate in Georgia... in the Hammack house! Monty got one when he was there at the Moose's tooth! He loved the pizza!
