Cabin Nite Fun!










Last night we went to Cabin Nite at one of our sister properties. It is a dinner theatre that puts on a show about Fannie Quigley. She is a local legend. She pretty much forged a life in this rugged area on her own. She is actually one of my favorite historical figures. They serve you an amazing family style dinner of Ribs, Salmon, Corn on the cob, beans, potatoes and biscuits. For dessert you get a homemade bluberry cobbler. Then they put on this really great show about Fannie Quigley, Charles McGonnegal (He was on the Sourdough expedition that first tried to climb Denali.) and Harry Carstons (The first superintendant of Denali National Park.). It really makes you appreciate Alaska more. I always get sentimental and imagine staying here permanently. Then I remember it gets to 50 below in the winter and I snap out of it! Here are some pics from the show.

That looks like so much fun. Hey just wondering how I send my Vemma page to people via e-mail, like you did for me? I got the bug to try and sell this stuff a little more. Seeing the check made me excited, if anything to pay for my vemma. Thanks a ton.
