alaska:unexpected music, suprised food

some times, things suprise you. for example, when at mountain market, just as I was considering how awful the country top 40 chart is, shockingly, wilco’s ‘impossible germany’ and laura viers’ ‘galaxys’ played back to back. this was unexpected, and I was shocked into remembering that decency does happen when you are unawares, every once and awhile. reminded of all sorts of things, really.

another thing, is the fish. fish so fresh, its still suprised about being caught. ladies and gentleman, I imagine very few of you (maybe those of you for whom wilco and laura viers breaks through) have had fish this fresh, like butter. halibut that will make you sigh and keep silent. rockfish that might kill you while you gut it, but it will love you when you eat it.

do yourself a favor. open a bottle and turn on some wilco. but forget the fish, it won’t be as good.

I think I know what you mean by the fish… Last time I was in Alaska I caught fresh salmon out of a stream and cooked it over a campfire with butter and garlic… I’ve never been able to come close to that culinary experience since then.

fish that will make you realize you had never really eaten fish before. remind me to show you a picture of a fish when you come back south.
