Say Bye To Sarah Palin As You Swing By Her Alaska Office
Whether your heart is still aching over her loss in last year’s election or the fact that she's still around, you better hustle up to Juneau, since time is running out for Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Over the long weekend, she decided to light off some of her own fireworks by announcing she wouldn’t be seeking a second term, nor would she even be finishing out her term in office; she’ll be wrapping up her duties and stepping down by the end of July.
Go to Alaska and bring home a souvenir eBay can be proud of: go to Alaska’s Capitol Building and try to get her to sign your ticket stub. The facilities are open all summer, obviously to take advantage of all those cruisers looking for glaciers, moose, and 2012 presidential candidates. The tours last for about thirty minutes, are totally free, and run daily. The state legislature, governor, and lieutenant governor all call this building their home away from home.
Be sure to check out the two sculptures in the lobby by Joan Bugbee Jackson that represent harvests from both the sea and the land, in addition to other carvings that represent the state’s moneymakers, like oil, gas, fishing, and trapping. And Palin or not, the replica of the Liberty Bell right out front will always be there for your tourist photographs.
