Celebrating souvenirs on Flyover America

Over at the blog Flyover America, writers Jenna Schnuer and Sophia Dembling celebrate the parts of the United States that are less likely to be visited than, say, New York City. “The places that many people consider flyover territory—Lincoln, Nebraska; Lubbock Texas; Bayonne, New Jersey, and the like—grab hold of us,” they write. It’s a great place to lose yourself for a few hours in stories from all corners of the States.

Today, I’m a guest contributor to the site, and the subject at hand is goofy souvenirs. I write about a beloved (and cheesy) ulu knife from a long-ago trip to Alaska. Read the story here.
