Travelling the Great Alaska Highway was really uneventful. The road ranges from good to excellent most of the way across the Yukon and British Columbia. We have been to several stops with museums on the construction of this road,…
I spoke too soon! (so what else is new, sez Liz!)
Our stay in Whitehorse was always intended to be a brief one – primarily for maintenance. You haven’t heard much about Bus Issues lately — and indeed RV WHERE YET has been performing well. Still, we build in a day…
Starting Home(ward)
This post finds us plotting our route out of Alaska and back to the lower 48. Our hope is to reach the Denver area (for reasons that will be exposed in later posts) around about the 19th of September, and…
It’s the little things (in unexpected Places…)
After leaving Ninilchik, we decided to stop in Palmer, just North of Anchorage. Our SOLE REASON for selecting Palmer is it is on the way to Valdez, and it is not Anchorage. OK, that’s 2 reasons. Now, it is not…
Salmonfest – Festival and Peripheral
After Seward and Whittier, we travelled onwards to Ninilchik, which is a little town on the west coast of the Kenai Peninsula. Our reason for being in Ninilchik was NOT because of the town, though. The annual “Salmonfest” Extravaganza was…
Seward –SWEET! Best Place Yet?
Our next stop was the town of Seward, also on the Kenai Peninsula. This is about 90 miles as the crow flies from Homer, but unfortunately, RV WHERE YET does not fly like a crow. So it was about 200…
Earthquake, Fishheads, Ferry Rides and Stalkers
Our next destination was at the very tip of the Kenai Peninsula – the town of Homer, Alaska. Their chamber of commerce calls it the Halibut Fishing Capital of the world; we don’t fish but imagined it as a Beach…
Anchorage…Only an Hour from Alaska!
Our next destination was the city of Anchorage, with over half of the population of Alaska contained therein. Someone at one point had said (with a bit of a sneer) that “Anchorage is only an Hour From Alaska;” the clear…
Denali and Talkeetna
These are two places that PROVE there is more than one way to get high in Alaska! We never book things very far in advance, which can sometimes work in our favor, and sometimes not. Access to the RV spots…
A Second Helping of Fairbanks
Like an ALL YOU CAN EAT Buffet, Fairbanks (and North Pole) get a second shot at the pages in this blog…and not just because we came BACK a second time and stayed at Pioneer Park for a few more days! …
