Back To Alaska
Leaving
Wisconsin on Monday, May 12th on a warm, drizzly morning for our
second adventure to Alaska.
Weather
Conditions fail to improve the further west we go. Besides the rain, the Northerly winds began
to blow. Is it possible to get sea-sick
in a motorhome? Instead of going up and
down, we were going side to side. I
would have gone in the back; but I felt I needed to stay belted in for my own safety. Tums became my lifesaver. Bill drove in these conditions for 470 miles….rain,
wind and dodging those wonderful, orange construction barrels! I guess it wasn’t as bad as seeing on
Facebook that Bill’s sister was driving today across Wyoming through a
snowstorm! WHAT? It’s May and isn’t that the state we have to drive
through tomorrow?
We’re at Big Al’s in Chamberlain, South Dakota
and it’s 34 degrees! So it is 75 degrees
at home and 70 in Anchorage, Alaska…Come on!
They
do have buffalo here …the ones that pose for pictures.
The do
have buffalo burgers …that are pretty tasty.
And…
They
do have junk shops that all tourist love …except for husbands.
This
is the view out our back window of the motorhome. The rain stopped, the wind died down, and the
sun even came out. We both have pulled
out our laptops and discovered we have free Wi-Fi, thanks to Big Al. Ahhh….all is right with the world again. J
Safe travels! xoxo
