The Fair Parade started at 10am and went right by where Dawn and I were. Lou watched most of the parade but then went back to the RV and prepared lunch.
Lunch as zucchini baked with garlic. Then tomatoes, green onions and Parmesean cheese were added until the cheese melted. The zucchini was served with baked halibut and brown rice. We then drove on down to Anchorage and parked the RV at Centenial park where we'll stay for a couple of nights. We took the Jeep downtown to the Alaska Museum so Dawn could visit the bookstore while Lou and i walked the 5th Avenue mall. When Dawn had finished with the Museum we headed out to the Title Wave Bookstore on Norther Lights Street. Dawn had hoped to trade in some books but we were moments too late. We browsed the excellent, and largest used bookstore in Alaska for a while. With that accomplished, and since it was after 7:30, we drove over to the Golden Corral Buffet for dinner. Interestinly, that was where we took Dawn the night she arrived here in Anchorage and this is her last dinner here in Anchorage. In the evening Dawn packed to leave tomorrow morning.

Sunday: (08/28) Granola and yogurt for breakfast. We took Dawn out to the airport by 08:30. Her plane didn't depart until 10:30 but you always want to be early, I assume. Security can be a hastle, I assume. I haven't flown since all this craziness started so I have to assume. Of course, there was no hasstle and Dawn whizzed through the check and got some extra time to wait. Lou and I were off and stopped by Lowe's for a missing bolt and washer i needed for our rock skirt arms. We also made a Costco run. Not much we need or want from there but it is where we get our bkue towels, batteries, plastic cutlery, Italian sausage and other odds and ends. We always find most things there are actually much more expensive and come in unusable large quantities for our needs. We had lunch at Costco, pizza for me and hot dog for Lou. With all our errands completed, and a visit to a thrift store we returned to camp. Next item on the agenda was to do our laundry. Before we leave Anchorage I need to get the RV and jeep oil changes. I checked on place this morning for the Jeep and they wanted $62, a bit steep, even for here so I'll do some more checking. We've been busy cleaning the RV and packing away Dawn's stuff. For dinner we went to Applebee's for their Two For $20 dinner. I had ribbs andLou had a steak.
