They're planning a stop at our place to see my 1943 Ford Jeep, used during the construction of the Alaska Highway but lost during a creek flood. My Dad dug it out in the 1950s and restored it. My 74 year-old jeep is still a working beast - it is our snow plow in winter.

Beaver Creek is my hometown
