Homer Alaska - Announcements

September 3, 2008
Pet of the Week
Cowabunga, dudes and dudettes! Holly is a 2 and a half year-old lab-mix surf bunny who likes to hot-dog the awesome tubes down at the beach. There are no sand facials for this gnarlacious beach bum she's knows all kinds of tricks. From sitting up and shaking hands to shootin' the curl, Holly is one bodacious pet in need of a hodad, geek, gremlin or grommet to take her for a ride in the Woodie for a Surfari.

Homer's Best Bets
Holy History! A charismatic Alaskan from a small town gets nominated to run for vice president on a major party ticket, showing that, yes, someone from the Last Frontier can rise to stature on the national scene.
