Home again!

Well, we have been home a couple of weeks and I finally have some time to do a final update here. With cleaning all the Canadian and Alaska dirt off and out of the Cruiser, cleaning the house, getting the yard into a basic semblance of shape and two days helping Chris and Kristen out at their new house we have been BUSY!




The trip was incredible! I just can't say enough of the beauty along the route we took. The pictures don't really do it justice. Every turn brought us to a view of jaw dropping scenery.


We hope you have enjoyed following along with us!

Sept 3

We re-entered the good ol US of A a few days ago and after bidding fairwell to the land of Loonies and Twonies (that says alot!), English/French bipolarism and lots of great scenery we are at Kathy's sister's in Port Orchard, WA for several days. We have finally found some sunshine and it is great after so many overcast skies and rain. Who would have thought the good weather would be in the Pacific Northwest??
