Last June I met two sisters from Virginia while I was working at the Anchorage Visitor's Center. We've talked since then; however, haven't met in person until recently.
Work had me at the Solstice Tree Tour at Kincaid Park mid-December. It wasn't long after I arrived that people started saying a woman was looking for me. They couldn't tell me who she was, just that she was asking people if they had seen me recently. I was wandering around, admiring the trees, when I noticed a woman coming towards me calling my name. It was Sal and she had a big grin on her face! We had a nice conversation. I told her I had been in contact with her niece's first grade class. She told me they enjoyed hearing about Alaska. We caught up on what we had been doing, took a few selfies and went on our separate ways. It was too cold for a lengthy conversation.
Work today (01-14-2023) took me to the Best in Alaska Showcase at the Dena'ina Center. I worked the Visit Anchorage Alaska booth between 2:00pm and 3:00pm. Guess who stopped by the booth! The Virginia sisters! We couldn't visit very long, I was supposed to be working, but it was real good to see them again.
