Musher's Cafe

Since I never quite know what I will write about, that makes it interesting for you the reader. This post is a plug for a local restaurant with a purpose.

Musher's Cafe which will be opening soon in Fairbanks, Alaska is a very worthwhile project of a gentleman named Bill who is the Executive Director of Adult Learning Programs of Alaska.

This is a non-profit organization that works with mentally and physically handicapped people who would otherwise have no access to learning a skill or trade. Musher's Cafe will be a small cafe where handicapped (rather handicapable) adults can work, be mentored and learn how to work, live and thrive in a restaurant environment. This is a hell of an idea, and my wife and I wish him well.

Along with wishing him well, my wife has been appointed as Chief Art Groupie, and as such is in charge of decorating the cafe with her art and mushing/dogsledding memorabilia, which she has quite a bit of as she is an old musher! Along with everything else I am working on and blogging about, I have decided with Kitty Wolf's encouragement to give periodic updates of the progress of Musher's Cafe!

Please look up Musher's Cafe on Facebook and show your support with a like for Bill. He is basically a one man show that could use your support. His goal is to have the cafe open by the time the Yukon Quest begins. As I said before, Kitty and I will be helping him in any way possible. He could use some help if you have the time. Thank you for your support!
