Post #13: Skagway, part 1

LIARSVILLE

Port of call #3 was Skagway, where we spent the day of August 8. Our group went by bus to a “town” called Liarsville:

where we had a salmon bake lunch, watched a vaudeville-like show, and then panned for gold.

PANNING FOR GOLD

By MERRILL, age 12

One fun thing we did was gold panning in Liarsville. The four steps are scoop, shake, tilt, and pour. We all earned several gold flakes and learned that around 8 flakes would be worth a few dollars. We had lots of fun gold panning and will remember it for the rest of our lives.
