... their deep-fried mushrooms are especially delectable. Art had a ribeye and prawns and I ordered a halibut sandwich and an order of mushrooms, which was enough to share with three other tables! Thanks for dinner, Les!<br><br>When we returned to the RV park, we arrived just in time to join the pancake toss. Guests have two chances to throw a cold pancake into a bucket about 25 feet away to win a free ...

... and salmon. We do still have food in the freezer to eat thank goodness, but plan on eating fish on the way home. They RV park is nice and it is reasonable at $30/night. We have free WiFi for one hour a day and then $6.50/day for all day. It is in the upper 70's today and a little overcast. All is well. Les is watching "Deadliest Catch". Same show he saw several times already, but oh well.<br><br>Love to all.<br>Diane<br>

... weren't there when we left Ohio.<br><br>We checked into the campground and have a nice pull-through spot with trees on both sides. We spent the afternoon and evening in the motorhome, not even venturing out to check out the campground. <br><br>It's been many days since we had service on our cell phones and I was able to get through to both of my sisters to say hello while Art cooked dinner.<br><br><br><br><br><br>*Mukluk Land Amusement Park Decidedly low ...

... Virginia Beach who have just retired from the ministry and are now serving as chaplains in an Presbyterian senior center and children's cancer center respectively. Very fascinating people! Will not have any photos tonight as the internet is not in our rooms, same as last night. But at least tonight I got the blog written. Hope to download photos, wash clothes, and catch up tomorrow in Dawson. Then I can add some photos to these ...

Hello Family and Friends,<br> Can you believe it? We are actually in Alaska.....drove 391 miles today.....most of it 40 mph or less. The frost heaves were the worst ever! Huge dips....craters really, and when Woody turned it over to me, his comment was "I'll never drive again!" and.......my comment to him was, "I'll never ride again!" Most of the day was spent waiting in line for ...

... profile whatever that is. At exactly 223 miles from Whitehorse we see two moose in the road. One turns to the right, and one goes left. Val tries to get a picture, but she is not quick enough. Dave has quickly put my window down, and with my head out the window I get a close up view and a quick smell of the beast. I let out a Beagley, "Owowow!" which surprises both Dave and Val because I am usually so refined. About another seventy miles ...

... and pancake throw. If you manage to get your pancake into the bucket, you win a free pancake breakfast. Sadly we found out when we registered that the owner had been killed back in March in a snowmobile accident. His wife and children are trying to carry on in the tradition he started, but there was no dinner and pancake throw tonight so it was off to Fast Eddies for dinner. Tomorrow we are taking a little side trip up to Chicken.

... o &amp; olives. Good stuff. The day was just partly cloudy with temperatures in the mid 70's which is hot for Alaska and some of the warmest weather we have had all trip. Next stop was the gas station in Tok where Diesel is now $5.36. Again, this will be the cheapest we'll see until North Dakota in a few weeks. The good news about the station was there free RV wash - yes, we washed twice today. But hey, it free!!!! However, we had to wait on ...

... t get above 55-60mph. This was going to be a long 300 miles. Highlight! We made it to Alaska! After getting harassed (again) at the border for not having a note from Alex's mom indicating I could take him in and out of the country - please! Anyway, felt good to back in the USA on the 4th of Juuuly - baby. As soon as we got through the border, I stopped and pulled out a big American flag and ...

... With the gravel road you also have to be concerned about drivers in the other lane as they can easily throw rocks on you and crack the windshield - this did happen to us today by the way with only about 10 miles left. UGH!!!! The views could have been spectacular today save for the rain and low visibility. Even with the clouds the parts of the mountains you could see would still dwarf our Georgia Mountains. For the first 30 miles of the trip, we did ...
