We left our secluded campsite this morning headed for Watson Lake. The weather was rainy and a little cool most of the day. And the scenery again was awesome.
This little guy seemed to be lost. He (or she) is a juvenile moose and we are hoping Mom is around somewhere. It was up by the road and was somewhat startled by the vehicles.
We decided to shorten the day and stopped for the night at Toad River. Again...scenic overkill!
Inside this little log building is a restaurant, gift shop, post office, and no telling what else. It's the only civilization for miles and miles. Oh...and fresh baked cinnamon rolls...MMMMM!
This couple is from New Hampshire. They told us they have been right behind us for a while now. As you travel the Alaska Highway, you tend to start seeing the same people over and over again. It's great to be able to share stories and the "Did you see this?" or "Did you do that?" or "How are the roads up there?"
"Aunt Pam, are you SURE there's no more burgers????"
We are told that in the evening moose come to this pond two or three times a week. Unfortunately, today was not the day. But there were a family of beaver.
The best part of the day! Sitting around the campfire after dinner. We met this couple, Dale and Gayle from Red Deer, AB. They are on their way back home from Alaska. He was a hoot!
Ya just meet the nicest people on the road.
Tomorrow...Watson Lake....Maybe.
