BACK TO PALMER

June 26 ~ Tuesday ~ same...
David is whistling 'Dixie' and feeling better today...will see him next week at Ninilchik for a couple days. Didn't see the moose we've seen everytime we've driving past Sutton...probably taking the day off. Guess what today is! Laundry day, BUT there is a nice place in Wasilla that has a pre-dryer, a water extractor that really helps cut down on the drying time. Had 4 loads at $3 each...extractor (3 loads) at $1 each...and the dryer...a $20 bill, but the rugs and towels were included and had only done bits and pieces for a couple weeks.
Backed right into our space at Jeff and Janell's, hooking up the trailer to leave tomorrow for the Kenai. Hoping to stop at the Alaska Native Cultural Center tomorrow in Anchorage on the way down...no hurry, just meandering.

Teresa said...: It sure looks and sounds like you guys are having fun. I'm with Tasha, are you guys ever in a hurry? Hey, when you see my brother David again, will you please tell him that his little sister would sure like to talk to him? Love, Teresa; June 28, 2007 at 9:23 AM

Talkeetna purchase

We bought land about 15 miles SW of Talkeetna, Alaska...on e-bay...sight unseen! in 2006. I probably wouldn't recommend doing that for everyone, but we were blessed it was legal...and now have good neighbors in the north, too. In fact, one of our neighbors built a 250 foot road with a turn-around into our place and we could stay on our land part of the summer. Of course, then there was the flood with the washing out of the only good road leading to Malispina Loop, so had to wait to start back to MT for a few days until that was repaired and we could retrieve our cargo trailer, since we had left it on our land while down on the Kenai.

Welcome to the travels of John and Chrysa

We leave on June 6th so are in the process of thinking about getting ready. Actually, I've had stacks here and there all winter, but don't know if that'll save me time or not. I have washed and waxed the fronts of the camper (slide-in with tip-out) and under the overhead so all the bugs we hit can have a spot now. It was fairly crowded before starting...but I always use 'Black streak remover'~ if you haven't tried it, do...it's awesome! I'm going to give getting pictures on here a whirl in the near future...just hoping it's nearer (didn't have problems) than farther (had problems) away.
