Keeping Busy

Dan had fun with Wally's "toy" while Mary and I moved stones. This is in the front of the house.

Hidden Valley Ranch

Molt, MT 59057

What a beautiful setting for Mary and Wally's new home! We sure enjoyed our visit with them.

Milepost

We used the 57th Edition of this Alaska magazine on our trip this summer. It included food, gas, lodging, camping, fishing, sightseeing and road conditions along the highways and byways of Alaska, Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories and major access routes in Alberta and British Columbia. It was most helpful.

Bumps

These signs in Alaska are warning signs for bumps or frost heaves in the highway. We learned that if there are black tire tracks on the pavement just beyond these signs, that we really needed to slow down.

Signs

While traveling in Canada and Alaska we found many helpful signs.

Campgrounds

We’ve stayed at some beautiful campgrounds along the way. Due to refrigeration problems, the RV had to have electricity each night to keep the salmon frozen. Therefore, we stayed in commercial campgrounds.

Bugs

As our trip progressed, the bugs seemed to multiply. Clean windows lasted for a few miles. Sometimes the rain showers helped, but often we used elbow grease to get rid of the pesky creatures.

Pipeline

Here are different views of the pipeline which were taken from the RV as we went down the road.

Fishing for Salmon

We spent 2 days fishing for salmon in the Klutina River at Copper Center, Alaska. Here’s the happy fisherman. Fresh fish is delicious.

Lots of Fish

The 3 fish that we caught weighed 53 pounds. We had it frozen and shipped to Lakewood.

Filleting the Fish

Back at the Dock

This is one heavy fish!
