JUNEAU HARBOR, ALASKA
Juneau, capital of Alaska, and her thriving harbor protected by a breakwater 80 feet high, offers docking facilities to large and small boats. Gold mining, fishing and fur farming are principal industries.

Wow, they really have that city shoe-horned into that space, don't they?
They really do. It's a little taller now, but still kind of dwarfed by the cruise ships.
Michael- in case you need another blogquest, I thought of something right up your alley while in New England.
What about a review of various states' license plate slogans, with some being considered beyond reproach and awesome (like "Live Free and Die") and others being determined to be lame and needing changing (like "Spirit of America")?
These could be 1 to 2-parters- with the first stage determining whether or not it should be changed, and then the second stage getting ideas for better fitting slogans with you determining the best one.
Really, this seems to be such a good fit for you I'm starting to wonder if maybe you already did it.
Chuckdaddy, honey, I think it's 'Live Free OR Die,' though of course they are going to have to go sooner or later....
Cool proposal! I always thought Ohio's conceit that the state is 'heart-shaped' was pretty hard to swallow.
Always nice to see the back side of the Red Dog Saloon.
Live free and die. Wow, maybe that would be a good slogan for Nevada.
