You must go to Alaska and the Camp Inn is the perfect camper for the trip. We have had a great time. Both of us feel that the trip has way exceeded our expectations. We thought this would be a once in a lifetime but we both are talking about going back. It was wonderful. We are on our way...

We spent Thursday through Sunday in Haines which is a really neat place. We are very glad that we detoured to go down there. This is looking down Main Street. Our campground is just to the left of this restaurant. Our campground was 20 very tight spots that overlooked the Bay...

Anna and Steve, don't ignore Canada. We may have had our best one today in Carcross, Yukon Terr. A small xroad town with big city sticky buns!

We left Fairbanks on Aug 6th and headed for Haines with stops at Tok and Haines Junction, YT. On the way we saw the pipeline where it crossed the Tahana River. Very interesting how it was built and is still there in this tough environment. Tok is the start or end of the Alaska Highway...

Susan and Alan, we send a separate email blog to our Villages friends. Maybe one of them will clue in the Daily Sun. I haven't sent them anything. Mike

Jenn, Ha Ha , I thought you would like that!

Friday we drove to Fairbanks, Alaska and stayed at the Rivers Edge RV Park which was very nice. The couple that was parked next to us we met at a gas station in Cantwell on our way to Denali. They had a Tab so that is how we got talking. They are from Wisconsin and have a house in Cape Coral...

When a fellow camper told us they just saw a teardrop up in town, you can't imagine what I thought when I saw it was a Camp Inn 560. We waited around but no one showed up so we went on to the Ferry. We then saw them coming and I started waving like a crazy person. She said I was thinking who...

We were minding our business and driving through Haines Alaska and look what we found! A genuine Raindrop sighting in Haines. I bet there will never be 2 unplanned Camp-Inns in Haines again. Can't really tell from here where we are. Try the next pic. In case you don't believe me, check the...

Benn and Meribeth just got back from there. I'm not sure if they posted any details on the forum but you can probably search and find someone who's posted about it. We plan on that trip next summer.

I think Carol mentioned that she had made 12' web straps to keep the NB square. I tried to take some pictures while we were setting up yesterday but it was raining and this was the best I could do. Here you see one corner where we took off the rubber end of the metal spike , slipped on the the...

We are so bummed that we can't make it but it is Mike's 50th Class Reunion and it is the same weekend as the Camp Inn. We really enjoyed the Camp Inn Camp Out last year and were looking forward to it. Couldn't believe the class reunion got scheduled the same weekend. We will be thinking...

We have had a great summer in our Raindrop. So glad we found Camp Inn

At our next stop, I will put it in and Mike will take some pictures of the insert. Barry and Annie, if you can wait until next year, I'll come help you when we come to Nova Scotia. That's our current plan right now. We had so much fun here in Alaska that we decided we were going...

We have a Northern Breeze screenroom plus a PaHa Que canopy. We have been on the road three months now and we have not had the canopy out once. We have found that the Northern Breeze goes up and down so easy that we have not used the other canopy at all. We can put the sides down and have...

As promised, here are some photos from or stay in Homer.

Mike ran into a tour scheduling issue and we had to backtrack from Denali to Talkeetna one day for the flag stop train tour. It was a 2 1/2 hour drive back but really worth it. The Alaska RR runs the last flag stop train in the country. Basically, the train has a set schedule 5 days a week out...

Well it's time to back up a few days from our Denali excursion and tell you how we got there. From Homer we went through Palmer and Wasilla and on to Talkeetna. It's a mainstay on the cruise agenda and describes itself as a "sleepy little drinking town with a tourist problem". We stayed in the...

We had a great time in Homer but we are getting so far behind on the Forum that I'll jump ahead to our time in Denali and Talkeetna. Mike will put some pictures up on the General pic site later. I would recommend a trip to Homer to everyone. It's a very unique place, especially the Spit. We...

We found the gnome in a stream just north of Talkeetna while we were on the flag stop rail tour. Can Bob be far behind?
