Having lived in both cities (born in Cleveland and left Akron in '77), it is wonderful.
Only Anchorage's huge park that runs through and all around the city (you can walk to anywhere in Anchorage and not have to cross more than a small handful of auto traffic). It's a bit better, and then there's South Mountain Park in Phoenix, which is pretty spectacular, especially the view at night from the top of the mountain.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
