Hope, Alaska





Downtown in Hope, Alaska!






The view from Hope and the river with a fish cleaning station provided by the community.

We went through a very interesting Museum in Hope!




This is the restored original school.

The teacher lived in this room as well as taught there.



Here is the Hope school from 1938 to 1986.
Thought some of you teachers would enjoy the rules of the times!


This is Billy, the man responsible for salvaging most of the historical things in this museum.  He also restored most of it as well.  He has so much history in his head!
He is holding an oven and below is a larger one.



Horses had spikes on their shoes to walk in snow and ice.








Hope you can see this in the next photo.  Sawing the log in half with a man 
down in the hole and one on top to run the saw.




WE REALLY ENJOYED THIS MUSEUM!
