Back in Anacortes from a far away land is Santa Claus, busy listening to children’s wish lists as Christmas draws nearer. Santa visited the Majestic Inn & Spa Thursday night, and then the Chamber of Commerce Community Christmas tree lighting ceremony Friday night. He is pictured here with a few delighted friends, including Emma, Elsa and Jacob…
A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
