Yeah, far behind

Well, the internet being what it is, and Canada being what it is (remote) we have skipped a few steps and are now enjoying the land of midnight sun. I guess that's actually a reference to Scandanavia, but I'm borrowing it. We officially crossed the border into Alaska on Friday night. Actually, we were intially detained at the border because Liddy was acting suspiciously (sp?) terrorist like...you know the signs...standing outside the vehicle, rustling through bags frantically searching for a purse...all very threatening. So, once she had the purse (and I almost ran over her) she returned to the truck and was promptly berated by the customs officer for acting suspicious. We were only saved from further haranguing by the plague of mosquitoes that were plunging him...God Bless the USA. So, we spent the first night at the Border City Motel and RV park. Camping was unexceptional...however, the bathrooms were wonderfully American. The faucet was well set, the sink was stationary...it was everything we have become accustomed to. Hmmm, hot showers.
