Be it ever so humble, there's no place like Nome


It's said that Nome, Alaska's, name originated from a cartographer's mistake. It seems that, in drawing the map of the area the original cartographer wrote on the cape, or point, on the coast line; 'No Name'. Well along came another cartographer, copying the map and read 'Cape, No Name' as 'Nome' and wrote it that way.
Then, gold was discovered there, in 1898, and the rush was on! By 1899 Nome was a city of 10,000 people.
The Board of Trade, a saloon opened around 1900, was a nosey ruckus sleazy run-down place back when I was there in the '70s; in other words a fun bar! :-)
Since then, I've heard it's been gentrified, cleaned up for tourists , not sure I'd like it any more. :-(
Colored pencil and soft pastel on 12 by 12 inch colored card stock.
