Hey, don't ...Oh the memories are flooding!!! <br /><br />Hey, don't expect to see any night skies on your trip. The farther you travel north the longer the days are. I never saw the stars at all on our journey. Before you know it you will be having 24 hours of day light. Gosh I loved that!!! The sun will set but it just doesn't get dark before it peeps up again. I had the most energy I've ever had in my life. I never got tired and sometimes it would be 1:00 or 2:00am and we'd still be up feeling like it was just mid afternoon. Did I mention how much I loved all the long daylight hours??? Don't think I could handle those dark winter months though. <br /><br />We stayed for 3 days at Prophet River. That's where we met Mike and Terri Church (authors of the Alaska Camping book). Such nice folks. It was only us and them there at the time. Got a lot of R and R there as there was nothing even remotely close by to check out.<br /><br />About the dirty rig.... They are all dirty on this trip! I think everyone washes them when they finally make it to Whitehorse, that's what we did. The RV park we stayed in there had a big self serve RV wash and a self serve dog wash too... we washed the truck, the RV and the dog! <br /><br />You guys are traveling a lot faster than we did on our trip. Enjoy every bit of it!DAVIDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04521966409851885777noreply@blogger.com
