It can be hard for Alaskans to feel connected to the rest of the country. I recently went on a nearly coast to coast drive with my daughter and her family as they moved from South Carolina to Washington State. As we drove 500-mile days for a week a few connections between places on our drive and my home city of Anchorage emerged.
Welcome to the Dashboard Diaries a special four-part mini-series brought to you by the AnchorED City Podcast.
During this four-part mini-series we will connect with Anchorage’s soul through her history, stories, and people by connecting to four places along the road from our drive across this vast land of ours.
On this episode we consider a connection between Kansas City, MO and Anchorage.
