The Dashboard Diaries #1: Greenville, SC
May 19, 2025
Alaska feels a bit removed from the rest of the United States because it is separated from the contiguous 48 states by a minimum of 500 mile. Anchorage is even further away. That distance can leave residents not only distinct and different, but often detached.
It can be hard for Alaskans to feel connected to the rest of the country. I recently went on a nearly coast to coast drive with my daughter and her family as they moved from South Carolina to Washington State. As we drove 500-mile days for a week a few connections between places on our drive and my home city of Anchorage emerged.
During this four-part mini-series we will connect with Anchorage’s soul through her history, stories, and people by connecting to four places along the road from our drive across this vast land of ours.
Welcome to the Dashboard Diaries a special four-part mini-series brought to you by the AnchorED City Podcast.
On this episode we consider a surprising connection between Greenville, SC and Anchorage.
