WHATS UP DOC
MAY 31 HAINES TO ALASKA
WE LEFT HAINES ON MAY 31 HEADING TO THE ALASKA BORDER. WE STOPPED AT CONDON GOVERNMENT CAMPGROUND YUKON. ANOTHER NICE PLACE.

IF YOU TENT CAMP YOU HAVE TO BE IN THEIR ELECTRIC FENCE AREA BECAUSE OF THE BEARS.

JUNE 1 MADE IT TO ALASKA.

FINLEY MADE IT!
5700 MILES
FROM THE BORDER WE HEADED TO TOK ALASKA. WERE WE WOULD TAKE THE TOK CUT-OFF TO THE GLENN HWY TO PALMER ALASKA.
.AS WE WERE ON OUR WAY TO TOK WE STOPPED AT A REST AREA AND MEET A COUPLE AND THEY SAID WE SHOULD STOP AT FAST EDDY'S RESTAURANT WHEN WE GOT INTO TOK.
SO WE GET TO TOK HUNGRY AND DIDN'T WONT TO COOK.SO WE  TOOK THEIR SUGGESTION
AND PULLED INTO FAST EDDY'S. AS WE WERE GOING IN A LADY ASK US WARE WE  WERE HEADING. SO I TOLD HER WE WERE GOING TO TAKE THE TOK CUT-OFF TO DENALI NATIONAL PARK.. SO SHE AND HER HUSBAND PRESIDED TO TELL US WHY 
WE SHOULD  GO UP TO FAIRBANKS TO GET TO DENALI. AFTER 45 MIN OF THEM TELLING US WHY. WE WENT IN AND HAD OUR SUPPER.
SO WITH SOME DISCUSSION I MADE THE DECISION TO GO THE TOK CUT-OFF. BECAUSE THE MOUNTAINS AND WILDLIFE ARE SUPPOSE TO BE GREAT.

THE FIRST PART WAS GREAT. ROADS GOOD AND SOME WILDLIFE.

FIRST GRIZZLY 




SO FAR SO GOOD. NOT
HELL  AFTER THE BEARS IT STARTED TO RAIN AND THE ROADS GOT ROUGHER NO I MEAN ROUGH.
SO THIS IS THE BEST MOUNTAIN VIEWS WE GOT ALL DAY IT WAS SO CLOUDY AND RAIN ALL DAY.





HOLD ON! IT HAPPENED THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HIT A FROST HEAVE
AT 55 MPH.

THIS IS MARGARET'S MOM TABLE NOT GOOD.
THE BAD NEWS IS THAT THE BIG GOOSE EGG KNOT ON MY HEAD WILL NEVER GO A
WAY . THE GOOD NEWS WITH SOME GLUE AND CLAMP I CAN FIX IT.
SO LESSON  LEARNED WHEN A LOCAL TELLS YOU NOT TO GO THAT WAY LISTEN TOO THEM. IT FEELS LIKE I GOT A BIG BOBBIE ON THE BACK OF MY HEAD. DAM MARGARET.
NOW I HAVE SOME THING TO DO IN MY SPARE TIME.
TILL NEXT TIME                                      
                                                         CATCH YOU LATER
