I only thought it had stopped raining. It rained some more during the night and we awoke to very dense fog. It burned off around 10 so we decided to go into town and take care of things. We left the trailer and the first stop was a bank to get some cash. Next was a truck wash. We spent $29 and used the high pressure washer to get off the worst of the mud. It is not clean, and I missed some spots, but it is much better than it was. Do you think it needed it?
Next was some grocery shopping and fuel, then we returned to get the trailer and bring it in to town for the night. We are staying at the Pioneer Park parking lot. It is a city run pioneer village that has lots of shops, museums and old cabins and other buildings from the Fairbanks area. Best of all, most of it is free. It’s a nice place.
We found we have internet service here in the parking lot so we are updating the blog again. I have also posted to the gallery all the pictures from the Dalton Highway trip to Prudhoe Bay. They have not had any descriptions added yet. That will wait for some later date.
Hmmmm, that scooter looks all ready for a ride!
ReplyDeleteThat's a little muddy.
Whooo-eee! What a mess!
ReplyDeletePerhaps a tarp to cover the scooter next time...?
ReplyDeleteDo you think Smokey's Dri Wash will work to clean it up?
ReplyDeleteMakes your cars in Edgewood seem positively sparkling.
ReplyDeleteAre you going to take the Dempster Highway? That's the place which stays sharpest in my memory.
ReplyDeleteMom - Probably not. It would be different scenery, but since we have now crossed the Arctic Circle and been all the way to the Arctic Ocean it does not have all that much draw. I seem to remember that you and Dad only went up the haul road a short distance and did not go above the Arctic Circle until you took the Dempster. Is that right?
