August 7, 2010

We drive from Tok to Cottonwood RV Park, just south of Destruction Bay, Yukon.  This is the worst of the Alcan, as far as we are concerned.  The road has a lot of heaves, Marilyn (the cat) heaved a lot, and a bottle of balsamic vinegar broke and dribbled out into my kitchen.  The rig smells like salad -- oh well, it could have been worse!  Pat and Bernie had had enough of the road so stopped about 90 miles before us.  We just wanted to get through this part of the road in one haul so they will meet us here tomorrow.  This is truly the worst part of the road but very doable.  You just have to take your time.  Pat wasn't feeling well, either, so I'm sure that didn't help.

Will be heading to Haines, Alaska, probably tomorrow.  I was surprised to have internet here.  The owners live in Ontario, Canada but they have this beautiful home with an RV park right on Kluane Lake and come here in May, leave in late September.  It's only 15 amp service with water and a central dump, but is so beautiful.  I would like to stay here for a couple of more days.
