Talkeetna to Anchorage
We awakened to a rainy morning. Since we hadn't gone into Talkeetna Wednesday evening we felt it imperative that we go in for breakfast. So we grabbed umbrellas and set out. The shuttle took us only so far then we traveled afoot on in to the little town. We joined...

We Found Gold!
Literally! And figuratively. It's been a fun day. We're in the Land of the Midnight Sun and we just had to get up in the middle of the night just to see the daylight out of our hotel window. We rode on the Binkley Family's Discovery III on the Chena River....

Dunkin’ Comfort
Heading to Boston via US-20 we passed through Sturbridge, Massachusetts and couldn't help but think of that one line in James Taylor's Sweet Baby James so we queued it up and listened to the song. Just before leaving the US highway we paused for refreshment. We're...
