  • I remember sitting at the Alaska/Canada border on our way to Tok. Stopped by the flag guy due to construction. Talked to him quite a while. He was quite proud of his job. Said it was the best one he had held. Talked him into taking our picture at the Welcome to Alaska sign. He was very nervous that his boss would see him doing it. We treasure that picture. It headlined the calendar we sent to our jealous relatives. I deeply regret that I did not pay him for taking our picture. Hope I see him in a few years.
  • We were there in June and I also would like to see some pics. We wore out 4 cellphone cameras between the four of us. Family says they'd like to go back soon!!
  • We are here until the 9th of September, I will try to post more about our Trip when I get back to Tennessee. I have very spotty Internet, Thanks for the Info about delta Junction. We will try to get down there.

    which way you going? hope you have a great time.
  • Nice to hear you are having a good time. However, I was hoping to hear a little more about your trip & see a few pics.

    We were in Alaska for 3 weeks in July & had a Marvelous Time & we were able to do 9 days in a Rented Aliner Camping Trip while there.

    We flew up. Most of the camping was by Seward. It was our 3rd Fly to Alaska trip. Second time to do any camping.

    You Entering Alaska or Leaving? There is a very nice visitor center/rest area in Delta Junction (the official Start/End of the Alaska Hwy. they claim.) Nice gift shop there.
