Sheila, Orlando, Gwen and I met Brian and Suzen for lunch at the Gold Range Cafe. Chinese fare with cafe standards. I had hot and sour soup - delicious and spicey. Amazing vintage signage outside. Orlando and I walked Suzen back to work at Canarctic Graphics, a full-services printer which publishes regional newspapers plus collateral for other clients. Suzen's working on the 2010 firefighter's calendar.
Gwen, Sheila, Orlando and I visit the Northern Images Art Gallery. Beautiful prints, sculptures, felt hangings, etc. How about a musk-ox scarf for $400? The molted undercoat fur (quiviut) is gathered from the tundra, cleaned, spun into yarn and knit. Quiviut is eight times warmer than cashmere. The softest, warmest and most luxurious natural fibre in the world.
Stop by the Northern Frontier Visitor's Centre and then walk to the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre. Very interesting.
