Rose at Arizona Science Center Our decorations Campground pool (yes it’s heated) and hot tub (also heated) Pickleball court Rose saw Karissa again - we met her 2 years ago. She did her extensions and it only took 6 hours. Rose put together most of this 1,000 piece puzzle. Big accomplishment Star party at Lost Dutchman State Park We returned to the Ghost Town at night Ghost town (that’s Ken, we didn’t see any ghosts) Jenn’s second cousin passed unexpectedly. He was living in Phoenix so we were able to attend services. It was great seeing cousins but wish it would have been under better circumstances. It was a great week! It’s still odd listening to Christmas songs with the car AC on, palm trees in sight, lovely sunsets, and lots of sun. Rose says that she misses the snow and is tired of the sun. I know that Ken doesn’t miss moving the snow (but he does miss his tractor). Rose had a 6 hour hair appointment for new extensions. I delivered lunch to her th...
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...
30 minutes after leaving Las Vegas Drive to St George More scenery Pool at St George campground Sand Hollow State Park Bike trail in St George near Virgin River Sign on trail Drive to Bryce Canyon Tunnel on way to Bryce Canyon Natural Bridge at Bryce Canyon Bryce Canyon National Park Bike lane and road to Tropic, Utah - nice downhill into the town Hike to Mossy Cave Mossy Cave trail The drive leaving Las Vegas started out uneventful although traffic was somewhat heavy. Then about 30 minutes later and within 15 minutes of me updating the last post to say we hit over 8,000 travel miles, the rear left trailer tire “exploded”. The location wasn’t ideal but Ken managed to drive to the far left lane that was blocked off and therefore available. Within 20 minutes we were on the road again. (For a more detailed story, ask Jenn or Ken). Thankfully no accidents were caused by our tire and we were all safe. PTL The drive to St George was quite beautiful and the campground was on the outskirt...
