Rescued and Rehabbed


Blog friends, gifts, Delta Junction, Alaska
Who do we all know in Delta Junction, Alaska?

Why, Marti, Of course, from Rescue Rehab!

One night I spied something I wanted from Alaska.






So we struck a deal.

Horror Monster, my beloved craft stash would send her some fabric, and I would receive the object of my desire.

Marti threw in a lot of extras.

A bumper sticker with "We're all here because we're not all there."

Alaskan humor - she knows I am addicted to all the Alaskan reality shows.

A package of the state wildflower - forget-me-nots.

A package of salmon jerky.

Did not know that existed - rather tasty. 

I had to share some tiny bits with Willie and Scout.

But mostly I ate it.

YUM!

A sweet note about not finding wrapping tissue because of the kitchen sink in her purse.



Marti also included a vial of official Delta Junction gold!
















And what was the object of my desire?

A vintage Alaska license tag!

  2. LOVE that bumper "snicker!" I was born in Alaska and given up for adoption there. My sweet mom and dad found me and brought me to Texas (they were military). I have since found my biological father's family, and a cousin gave me the license plate from the truck my father was driving when I was born, dated 1960. My mom and dad traveled the ALCAN Highway back when it was just a gravel road, towing a mobile home behind them like a snail. Not an RV, a mobile home! Of course, they were smaller back then. We also have an elderly friend who actually worked on the ALCAN, so this would be a favored sticker around here. For our 25th anniversary five years ago, my husband and I took a cruise to Alaska so that I could see where I was born. It was an awesome emotional trip. I don't remember seeing that bumper sticker, but now I'll have to find it. Maybe from Marti, or an online site. I'm so glad that you showed it here ! By the way, hubby fell in love with salmon while we were there; me...not so much. (grin)

  3. What a sweet friend! I've never tried salmon jerky but I bet it's tasty. I love smoked mullet and I would think it would taste similar. The tag is great! What are you planning to do with it? There's a building up the road from me that is covered in old car tags. Too cool! Have a great Tuesday!
