A novelistic view of the interior of an Alaskan Ferry while stopping at Haines. Especially 2 huge murals of bears and moose. Original “Torso Sculpture” a musical composition by me and also I mean, it’s just a riff on the harp with some changes, but I’m still recovering from a broken left hand two years ago, set by Rob, the nurse in the Skagway clinic so I’m still a bit slow with the guitar hand. I couldn’t afford to fly to Juneau for a couple of pins. It’s a Blues Band made in China I picked up here in Ketchekan (Little Ketchie). The fourth finger’s a couple of mil shorter now so sometimes it’s a reach. I’ll have to get used to it or start playing the frets with the right hand.

Question by rangerkloog: What is the cheapest/easiest way to get to Alaska?
I’d like to go up to Homer this coming June, but at least to the southern bit (Ketchikan). We’ll be leaving from Washington state but that, too, is flexible. The marine highway is so expensive, and driving is so far, but I’ve had trouble finding information on trains & buses. Anyone have any tips? Thanks!

Take the mailboat. Nothing fancy, but inexpensive.
