From the Bagoy’s email newsletter:

“Alaskans need and deserve the beauty of Spring after our long, dark winters”, says Chanda Mines, Owner of Bagoy’s. Inspiration for this event came during a March snowstorm over 15 years ago. “We continually see how happy spring flowers make people feel…and even happier when we surprise them with a gift. So we do!”

What a pretty picture… about this time of year I start wondering when we’re going to see green again. Send your friends a copy of the state’s official “Travel Alaska” vacation planner and they’ll be wanting to come visit you this summer! Or just grab one for yourself and ideas on what to get out and see this summer.
