More rain in
the morning. Warmed up today to low
70’s. Rain is a constant threat. Very humid, dampness all around. Brenna took Dean to another half day of care
in preparation for next week. Zach went
with her this morning to see how it is done.
We meet up with she and Dean at 49th State Brewery Pub for
lunch. A brand new place opened in the
former Snow Goose Brewery. Their outside
decks have the best Denali , Alaska range and Mt. Susitna views from Anchorage. (when it’s clear) The owner bought a lot of
high quality lumber for the décor. There
are two gorgeous rough plank tables with rough edge. The menu is eclectic and above the usual pub
fare. We try Alaska yak quesadillas,
deep fried avocado and giant Bavarian pretzel in beer cheese sauce. Chuck gets a giant hamburger, Pat gets pork
belly tacos and Brenna gets a huge slab of King salmon blackened on a bun. Needless to say we didn’t finish it all. We also tried a few of their beers from the
brewery downstairs. This site also hosts
the fur rondy melodrama done in February, which we have enjoyed many
times. Dean sleeps through the meal and
the noise, such a good little lunch companion.
We set off down the coastal trail near the restaurant. We have views of the port, the inlet and the
planes taking off at the airport. We
pass through Bootlegger’s Cove. An early
settlement known for its wild ways. We
stay long enough to have play time and a nap for Dean. We leave in less than a week. He has changed
so much and he knows us. It will be hard
to go. Night!
