February is Heart Month

Did you know, fish is a good source of protein and, unlike fatty meat products, it’s not high in saturated fat. Fish is also a good source of omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids benefit the heart of healthy people, and those at high risk of — or who have — cardiovascular disease. Research has shown that omega-3 fatty acids decrease risk of arrhythmias (abnormal heartbeats), which can lead to sudden death. Source: American Heart Association.

By the way, walking is one of the easiest ways to increase your physical activity and improve your health. Physical activity increases your heart rate, strengthens your heart, and increases blood circulation through your body, bringing more oxygen and nutrients to your organs. Source: WebMD

So…. Take a Stroll Along Ketchikan’s Creek Street

Visited by thousands of visitors every year, historic Creek Street is a popular shopping destination in Ketchikan. If you happen to be in Ketchikan on Valentine’s Day, take your sweetie on a stroll along the boardwalk and browse these great shops: Niblick’s General Store, Simply Salmon and Fish Creek Company Gif Shop offer goods to dazzle seafarers & landlubbers!

Cook a Heart-Healthy Salmon Meal

A savory salmon dish is an amazing meal for your sweetie! Enjoy a restaurant-quality, meal in the comfort of your own home. If you’re saving up for your next Alaska fishing trip, cooking at home is less expensive, but we also think salmon and the food you cook at home is healthier and tastier. The next time you’re at the lodge, ask our dockhands to butterfly a couple salmon steaks for you when you’re at the lodge. 

Speaking of Sweet Treats…

Have you sampled the Forget-Me-Not Chocolates? We highly recommend! This little shop sells homemade chocolates and truffles (including unusual varieties) as well as ice cream and barks. The hand-dipped Oreo and Nutter Butter cookies.
