I’m missing Alaska. Used to live there for 8 years and it never ceased to amaze me. Wether it was summer or winter. Seeing the eagles and moose and bears. An absolutely wonderful place to be.

@shadowfromthestarlight reminds me of a trip I took to Anchorage back in 2020.
I only had an hour in Alaska before I had to be at the airport.
I was told one of the things I needed to do, if I really wanted to experience Alaska, was drive Highway AK 1 North as far as I could.
I also knew from looking at maps prior to my trip that there was an Orthodox community in Eagle River. American Orthodox Christianity, arguably, began in Alaska. Many of the indigenous populations in Alaska think of Orthodox Christianity as their native faith. For that reason, Orthodox communities are more common here then elsewhere in the lower 48.
Because these Orthodox missionaries were exclusively Russian, Alaskan Orthodoxy really reflects the flavor of Russian Orthodoxy more so than the common Byzantium and Antiochian styles found in the lower 48. Also, because Orthodox Christianity tends to try to localize the faith, (except in the English speaking world) the missionaries really worked to try to create churches that would accommodate the indigenous people.
So, I chose to drive North to Eagle River and look at the church there.
These are the photos of the beautiful wooden church. I was unable to talk with anyone, but from the outside, this church looked very much like the outside of St. Innocent Orthodox Cathedral in Anchorage with it's predominant use of wood.
The inside was beautiful too. I just wish I'd taken more pictures - maybe one of the windows and one of the Christmas tree.

Fitzgerald's, "The Fitz" (update), Eagle River, MI., 7/31/23
exterior – 5033 Front St, Eagle River, MI 49950 We were at the Fitzgerald about a year ago but this time we stayed on the second level in the newly re-done large rooms.  The view and sounds of Lake Superior are fabulous and with so many hot places, the cool breeze here was refreshing.  The staff are super friendly and there’s plenty of parking out front.  The restaurant does get full, so…

International Day of Action For Rivers
International Day of Action For Rivers, observed on March 14 every year, is a day that is dedicated to saving, celebrating, and creating awareness about the importance of rivers. Did you know that two million tons of sewage, industrial and agricultural waste are discharged into the world’s water every day? Yes, it is the equivalent of the weight of the entire human population of 6.8 billion people! This is why it is our time to save our rivers for the good of humanity.
History of International Day of Action For Rivers
The International Day of Action For Rivers is a day created by the International Day of Rivers to sensitize people about the importance of rivers. It brings people across the world together to talk about and save rivers by addressing the issues related to river management, river pollution, river conservation, etc.
The history of the origin of the International Day of Action For Rivers is an interesting one. In September 1995, several organizations, including International Rivers Network (I.R.N.), India’s Save the Narmada Movement (N.B.A.), Chile’s Biobio Action Group (GABB), and European Rivers Network (ERN) came together and conducted a preparatory meeting in Brazil. As a result, they formed an international Organizing Committee headed by Brazil’s Movement of People Affected by Large Dams (MAB).
In March 1997, in Curitiba, Brazil, participants of the First International Meeting of People Affected by Dams adopted the International Day of Action Against Dams and For Rivers, Water and Life. Furthermore, they decided that the International Day of Action For Rivers will take place on March 14.
Every year there will be a theme for the International Day of Action For Rivers, and last year, in 2021, the theme was ‘Rights of Rivers.’ It demanded that rivers be declared a national asset and given legal rights to stop the rivers from becoming dumping sites for waste and sewages.
Environment enthusiasts conduct workshops, seminars, and activities to celebrate this day to raise awareness and spread the message. So, let’s take a stand against the activities that harm the rivers and protect them at all costs.
