11 years on this island and I have never seen so many people in town for the Independence Day celebrations.

The harbor was crammed with cruising yachts. The streets were crowded with Out-of-Towners wearing matching (Cruise ship) jackets and T-shirts.

Parades, log rolling, herring toss, plank race, food, Food FOOD and MORE FOOD!... All the small town celebrations you can imagine. The Volunteer Fire Department, The Sons of Norway, Devils Thumb Shooters,...Main Street closed for three days of celebrating.

Did I mention fireworks?

Just WOW!

“Alaska’s Little Norway” threw a classic American 4th of July celebration in the blistering 65 degree weather.

Join in with prayer for our nation and FRens.

A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.
