Family Visit and Winchester Bay, Oregon

After returning back to the "lower 48", we stayed at the Angel of the Winds Casino on Aug 27th for the night (free, 48.215229, -122.183998) again. This was the same casino we stayed at before going into Canada. They've recently created a new dry camping area on the northern parking lot. Food is still good there. We then headed to Burien, WA and stayed at the Elks Lodge RV Park for 2 weeks (Aug 28t...

Our Alaska Adventure Ends - Weeks 14 and 15

Alaska Adventure - Weeks 11, 12 and 13

From our last post we were still in Fairbanks for another 5 days.

This was one of my must see and do items on our Alaska trip. We started off our visit purchasing our tickets for their Ice Museum....
