the hart's come to town


Well it took three years of us coming to work up in Alaksa for our parents to finally decide to come and visit. Brian's Dad and Mom came up last week to visit, and Jenn's parents and brother will be here later this month. It was a great time for Brian's parents to come because the weather was pretty nice most of the time, although it did piss rain one day so they could see that too.
We were able to get them on lots of the shore trips that the cruise ship passengers take when they come here. They were able to go Kayaking, take a streetcar ride, go through a brothel, have a salmon cook-out at an old gold camp, take a flight over the glacier icefields, and then canoe out to one of the glaciers. Oh and of course they got to ride the train. In addition to seeing everything that there is to see here in Skagway they were here on the 4th of July and were able to take part in all the small town festivities.
