Wasilla - A Big Small Town

September 4, 2008 3:29 PM | permalink | comments: 0

Laugh if you want about Sarah Palin being mayor of a little town like Wasilla. Truth is, Wasilla is the fourth-largest city in Alaska. And it's growing. Used to be ninth.

If Palin were mayor of the fourth-largest city in Indiana, she'd be living in South Bend and rooting for the Fighting Irish.

With 9780 people, Wasilla is roughly the size of Decatur, Ind. So there.

About Me

Steve DennieCareer-wise, I've been hanging around and writing about and cheering on churches and pastors for the past 25 years as my denomination's Communications Director.
I write primarily for my own amusement. If anyone wants to eavesdrop, they're welcome to it. My heartbeat is serving God faithfully through the local church. But my posts repeatedly stray into sports, politics, movies, and other nonsense.
I've been blogging since 2004, and it's been fun. Please understand that, though I work for the United Brethren in Christ denomination, the nonsense I spew out here comes from my own semi-functional brain in a totally personal, non-official capacity. Yes, that's a disclaimer.
