Weeeeeee and they are off...... I spent the day cleaning out cabinets in the rig and rethinking my storage options...and know it doesn't sound exciting but it sure worked for me. Herschel sat in his navigators bed and kept his eye on the progress...... :)

I'm not quite in Canada - delayed it to stop at St. Mary's at Glacier. Great time to stop - water isn't on, so it's only $5 with pass, $10 without today. No AT&T signal here - Verizon signal looks excellent, but keeps knocking me offline. Go figure. When on, it's fast, though.

In the morning, I really will get into Canada :) Unfortunately, not going up through the Canadian National Parks - I know I'd take too long and not get to work by my start date. Hope you travelers ARE going that way. I'll be able to relive it through you. I am looking forward to going to the actual start of the Alaskan Highway this time - NO FIRES (are they listening?)

Mitch and Liz, those pics of the babies are so precious.

See you all soon.

Love the baby Killdeer! They are pretty allusive and in all my years growing up in the Midwest I had never seen one.


Here are the killdeer the morning they hatched (2 of the 3. Number 3 hatched later in the day)...nothing but legs!

Oh, thank you for sharing that picture! Yes, they sure do have some long legs. So cute.

Mitch a warning, watch the get back's from Liz. She may jump in there and bake you a pie. So you really should let Liz help. She will is certainly a big help.. so let her work before she starts baking pies and cookies!!!! :lol: :lol:

where I grew up we had Killdeer but never saw the babies so cute and they are all legs but then so is Momma must be in the genes :D
You guys have fun!!! and if the road you travel to or fro goes through or close to SLC stop at the friendly KOA and say hi would love it
be safe and take lots of pictures perhaps there needs to be a 'room' for just the Alaska trip pictures easier to find that way just a thought
sheila
forgot to thank Liz for the pictures
thanks

No, but I do have a camera. If I'm bored from not being allowed to help, I might start taking pictures of you working. Just saying...

Today, I think I will stop in Maggie, NC unless I decide to go to Cherokee and have a little fun and food at the casino. My ex and I stayed at Maggie a few years ago. If I stay at Maggie, is this the night I call my ex? Sarah and Wendy know what I'm talking about!!
