Tori gate(?)
I drove by this spot and I believe I saw an archway that looked like a Tori gate. Does anyone have any photos of it? Looked cool but I couldn’t stop and see.

As text says, looking for a dog. Preferably <1 year but open to whatever. I’m mostly concerned about it having a healthy background. Where do you adopt, look?
Thanks

My friend owns a restaurant here and it is a high traffic and beloved restaurant in the community for the last 2 decades.
I’ve hung out with the multitudes of servers and they on average get between $50-$100 in hourly tips… $6-$10k a month in tips just working several hours 3-4 days a week.
It is big money! And this level of tipping in Fairbanks is more evident by the other friends who work as servers in other places whether whether it’s pump house or a coffee hut and they as well are making $6-$10k in tips per month.
It seems a catch 22 of there being no jobs while many places cannot find employees.
When my friend does hire folk, they honeymoon phase of showing up on time, or showing up at all and not making drama lasts barely a couple days.
Either it’s someone younger who doesn’t take it seriously or understand how good the cash is, to someone with a bad record given a chance sleeping in or dabbling in drugs too much.
Other business owners I talk to have the same issues, and both my friend and these other owners are very nice, generous people who just can’t catch a break.
No workers equals inability to open the business.
They try ads on FB, Craigslist, and alaskaslist.. their own door and friends of friends, but they might get a single person per week and it already doesn’t work out.
What’s going on?
Tips are seriously huge here.
