Together again
Dear Ruth the Van, My mom is here!!! We drove into Anchorage yesterday and dad had lunch with a friend while we waited for her plane to get in. We didn’t have to do a lot of driving, so that was nice. I bet you enjoyed the break. Mom and dad had dinner with a…

Alaska!!!
Dear Mom, Dad found a nice camp spot last night, we got to hang out and he cooked dinner. Dad said the mountains were pretty on the drive, I was asleep. We made it to Alaska!! The snow is really deep here, it makes it hard to figure out where to go to the bathroom.…

Dear Mom, It was cold in the camp site this morning. I don’t understand why the ground is all white and frozen, but I’m not sitting on it any more, so I learned how to get on top of the picnic table. 🙂 We saw some really weird tall dogs today (moose) and lots of…

Are you sure he said Alaska
Dear Maverick, I checked my GPS and Alaska is reeeaaaallllyyyy far away (4600 miles), are you sure you heard right? Maybe he meant one of the other “A” states, there are a few of them. I did just get new brakes and tires, maybe that’s a bad sign. See you on the road, Ruth the…
