Rose and Jenn were fortunate to be able to enjoy the Liard Hot Sprimgs very close to the campground where Ken installed the repaired axle. Alaskan beauty. And more! It was so great to see the Alaska sign. Can you tell these passengers are very excited? Many gas pumps in the Yukon Territory look like this. And you have to go inside and leave your credit card for the pump to be turned on. And they aren’t 24/7. And sometimes you have to wait in line. And sometimes they have no gas or their pumps just aren’t working. Gas can be as much as $6.50/gallon in Yukon. Joy. Joy. And more Joy. We saw a lot of bison. They are big! And several bears just roaming. Almost home! We are home and in our driveway! Top: July 28, 2024 arriving home Bottom: August 1, 2023 leaving home The truck and camper made it too! The trailer axle was repaired by Friday afternoon, so we headed back to Liard Hot Springs area from Whitehorse. 400 miles. 7 hours. Again. We ended up seeing 1...
Sooo nice to meet up for dinner and visit with the Long family - Toby, Caleb, Erica, Ken, Jenn, Titus, Rose Ken returning from another Home Depot run. There’s always something to fix on our tin can as my friend Jill called it. In Buc’ees parking lot in Springfield, Missouri. Rose realized after visiting these a few times that Buc’ee is a beaver, not a squirrel. Which makes her happy because a squirrel ate her chips in Crater Lake. We are in Branson, very close to the strip. Campground pool. It gets pretty busy in the afternoons when it’s in the 90s. Before leaving Sandusky, Ohio, we did attend church services at New Life Church. The pastor knew someone from Alaska Missions in Soldotna who we know and he had been to our community on a missions trip. Small world. Now we are in Branson where it is Hot! Hot! Hot! High 80s and 90s. Ken is asking for 70s which he can still get at 3am. We are spending lots of time at the campground pool and just relaxing overall. Ken is sti...
One of the several bears we saw while driving. Photo compliments of Ken Sign post forest at Watson Lake Lots of bison Damaged axle getting hauled to Whitehorse 400 miles from where we left Le Camper. This is what we saw after seeing our tire roll by us and then into the woods. Same tire location that we’ve had issues with this trip. Driver side rear trailer tire. The scenery is definitely getting more beautiful. Rose thinks it looks like Alaska. We waited from 10am to 8pm for the road to get fixed. Thankfully we had Le Camper for naps (Jenn), restroom, and a hot dinner. Keep in mind this was in the middle of nowhere so no cell service to get road updates either. Workers hard at work making a new road since the road was washed away from the river. Ken decided it was a good time to get in his run. Jenn scootered and Rose played with her baton. Rose with twirling ribbon. Famous sign. We are still in Canada. So here’s where we went this past year. Jenn on an amazing ...
