Fairbanks AK
I spent the first night in a parking lot on College Road. The next morning, I stopped at the Walgreens in the next parking lot and ordered a refill that was too early to get before I left home. The problems with traveling so much but thankful that the drugstore in Fairbanks could fill the…

Tok AK to Fairbanks AK
I stayed at the Tok RV Village for one night. It gave me a chance to do laundry and get a shower. The shower felt so good. I was able to dump the waste tanks, get fresh water and charge the batteries using shore power. I pulled out the next morning and headed toward Fairbanks. …

Today is Sunday. And I am going to relax, spend time with God and meditate on his many blessings. The blessings of life and of this great creation we where we are permitted to live. I have lots of clean up again. It seems that every time I turn around the pantry or cupboard doors…

Tanana River Day 1
I pulled into this paved wide and long pullout on Saturday. The weather was great, and I walked the length of it numerous times to get some exercise. I spent two nights here just above the Tanana River. There is a swath about a hundred feet wide that lets you see the river, and a…

The mountains became more snow capped as time went on even though the altitude was in the 2500-to-3200-foot range. It was getting colder and the trees did not have leaves on them. Suddenly, the GPS tells me to…

Route 37 North Day 2
It started raining shortly after leaving Lower Gnat Lake. The weather was switching between rain, drizzle, sunshine, and rain. Sometime later, snowflakes hit the windshield and the wipers cleared them away. I was surprised, but the temperature had dropped in the high 30s so it was possible. I went through a large area where a…

Route 37 North Day 1

The town of Fort Nelson was evacuated because the fire was within one mile of the town. Heading west on 16, the scenery was stunning. The…
