I have just read “If You Lived Here, I’d Know Your Name” by Heather Lende. We got the book after the rather shocking news that our son and his new bride will be moving to Haines in less than two weeks. Kathleen will be working at Lynn Canal Counseling and Gabriel will be looking for some kind of work to help out. He is a videographer and photographer. After reading a few chapters of the book, I recommended they get it, too, and read it on the way up. They will be taking the ferry with their two birds and used Toyota pickup, loaded with whatever belongings they can pack into its bed under the cap. One thing I believe after finishing this book is that Haines is an awesome community. Take good care of them, will you?
