ANOTHER BOOK SIGNING

Friday evening, during the Downtown Vancouver Art Walk Hour, Betty was hosted by the proprietor of the Carnelian Tea Shop in cooperation with the owner of the Cover To Cover Bookstore for a very special time of presenting and signing her book, Jessie; The Story of a Genteel Lady in Frontier Alaska.During the event several acquaintances made the special effort to stop by and celebrate the evening with Betty, including daughter Patty and several friends from church. One who came early with his daughter was a lifetime Alaskan who actually owns property in Eagle where Jessie lived for so many years. It was fun visiting with him about the "Last Frontier" and his career.

Let me also comment on the wonderful hospitality of the ladies in this very unique and attractive Tea Shop. Many beautiful gift items are artfully displayed, and the samples provided of jams and scones and precious teas made the evening quite memorable indeed. By all means, make a special effort to visit this friendly store during the holiday season, and while you are there step across the parking lot to the bookstore too. You may find the perfect gift for your special someone in one of these remarkable shops.
