You Know You’re in Wrangell When…

(I’m stealing this great blog format from my good friends Mike and Anne, who are just finishing their 500 day round-the-world honeymoon)

• The runway is so small that the plane literally has to do a 180 at the end to get back to the terminal.
• You can walk home from the airport (when does that ever happen?).
• The pizza place closes early because they’re out of pizza fixin’s (and out of draught beer) – turns out the supply barge only comes once a week.
• The people are so friendly that the owner of the grocery store offers to give you a ride back to the marina with all of your groceries.
• Free lessons in dock surfing abound.
• You get back to your boat after 9 months of it waiting out an Alaskan winter and it’s in REALLY good shape (and still floating!)
