Missoula & Flatland Lakes

---Current location road to Denali Alaska---


6/8
We left West Glacier around 2pm and started to make our way down to Missoula. We are heading there to pick up a swing away hitch from the UPS store there. We slept at a Walmart in a beautiful area in the flatland lakes. 

Then headed out the next am to make our way into Missoula. Had a great breakfast sandwich from the Biscuit in Arlee. We then made our way to visit the new location of the SpectrUm museum. Kicked off with a free ice cream cone and then headed into the science museum. Finn's favorite exhibit was a sand pit that had a topographic map projected onto it. Which you could change the landscape by moving your hand through the sand. 

 After we went to UPS store picked up our hitch (which didn't work 😬) and then headed to a Monster Truck show! Let's just say Finn absolutely loved the show. He was screaming and giggling with delight. His favorite were the motorcycle stunts. Ailish was less impressed sin it's super loud even with headphones on. 











Next day we hit downtown for their farmers market which was really nice more of a food stand market but good nonetheless. After spending half the day in Missoula we headed back up to the Flatland Lakes area. We went to the town of Polson which was beautiful. We had a great meal at a mom and pop burger joint called Burgerville and then ended the day playing baseball at a park.

6/11
Made our way to big arm camp ground in the flatland lakes area. Gorgeous campground right on the water.
Spent all day there on the lake just playing, scooting and cleaning the RV. We roasted marshmallows and read stories by the fire at night. It was a nice low key day for us. The next morning we spent at the campground just enjoyin the water and finishing up our RV spring cleanse.

Valdez & Haines

Image
---Current location Prescott Valley Arizona--- 8/5 Woke up in Valdez and decided to explore the town after we did some much needed laundry and shopping. We stopped at their Gold Rush Festival which was small and then did a scoot around the town and Marina. After that we decided to head to Dayville Road to do a little fishing for salmon since we had yet to catch any in Alaska. Dan and Finn set out with poles and boy did they have luck. They caught 15 Salmon and certainly could have caught more. It was easy to snag the fish at this location because they spawn back to a hatchery located there. Since we were leaving Alaska in two days and had a freezer full of Halibut we shipped 17 pounds of Pink Salmon to the Worth Family. After a successful fishing afternoon we relaxed at Ruth Pond swimming and playing. We left that evening via the Richardson Highway and started to make our way to Haines to catch our Ferry. We did a quick stop at what we thought was a cave along the highway but turn

Oh Canada

5/1 crossing the boarder (F and A's first trip outside the USA. Crossed @ 9:22 am).  🇨🇦  We are on our way to drop off our RV to Roadtrek in Kitchener ON to finally be fixed (hopefully)!   Stayed in Kitchener Ontario for three nights. We hung out at the hotel, swam, watched cable and ate a really good steak meal. We had the obligatory Tim Hortons and FaceTimed with friends and family.  We also disproved the theory that all Canadians are super nice (met some really grumpy ones in Kitchener). Our RV was at the Roadtrek Manufacturer being fixed during this time. They did right by us they fixed our major problems and even fixed the damage Dan did to the body of the van the first day we got it 😄. Roadtrek even covered our hotel stay we cannot say enough good things about them right now. The afternoon on 5/4 we hit the road again. Plan is back  to the States until we cross to Alaska .  Made it to Michigan the same evening where we slept at a rest stop. We all h

Vancouver & Seattle

---Current location Mesquite NV--- The road to Vancouver & Seattle 8/11-8/15 Disembarked at Prince Rupert on 8/11 and started to make our way south through British Columbia. We knew we needed to make it south for the 21st for the eclipse so we are hauled butt to get to Vancouver and then Seattle. Ended up staying the night in the field of a country music festival that was being held in a town called Terrace. The music wasn't our cup of tea but it was free which gave us time to check out what was happening in town. We stopped at the local senior center for their pancake breakfast the kids were a huge hit and then went to one of the best farmers market we had visited to date. Then it was off to Prince George. In PG we ate some really spicy Indian food (it was nice to have ethnic options again), played in a park and met some very nice Canadians at the dog park. We made our way to Quesnal for the night. What we haven't mentioned so far is that BC is having some horribl
