Better Days 6

My girls will probably recognize this as the Bookey house. It was lived in up to about 15 years ago, actually. The elder Bookeys have moved up to the Anchorage area. Their children still live here. One is a "brown" truck driver and one is a city council person. Not sure if there are more or what they do, but these two we know.

The elders used to have a restaurant - well, two actually at one point, one in Kenai and one in Soldotna - called (what else?) Bookey's. Now they have two in Anchorage - called Wee-Bee's. "Little Bookey's" (wee because they're little and Bee for Bookey's - I'm guessing - what do I know)

The burgers there are the same as they were here - big - greasy - and hit the spot. Right, Lessa? I drove her to Anc. when she was pg with the Girl and she and the Boy and I stopped at one of the WeeBee's because she HAD to have a Bookey burger. I'm sure she will remember that trip because on our way home I got a speeding ticket!!! My first (and only - and last) ticket in Alaska. Sigh. Anyway, she said the burger met her craving, so that was all that mattered, huh?

Well, that is about it for our short tour of Old Towne Kenai homes that have seen better days. I'll share some other pics in the days ahead.

in the meantime -
