North to Alaska

by Kathy 7. June 2011 20:38

To me, the word "Alaska" brings to mind images of glaciers, bears, moose, wilderness, and snow-covered mountains. This summer, we packed up the RV and set off to discover what we hoped would be a grand adventure. And it was. Unlike our past journeys, where we posted detailed stories upon our return, we tried something different--we posted photos and brief stories from the road, while we were traveling. Click on each link below to follow our journey from Northern California up to the Arctic Circle in Alaska, and then back through the beautiful Jasper/Banff area in Canada!
