Oh beautiful for spacious skies...














My mom & I have been on the road for 9 days! Believe it or not there has not been one single disowning this whole time. Let's see... we've camped every night, not even a single hostel visit or KOA Kabin (way to go, Mom!). We've been through customs 4 times. Logged 3750 so far (and have more to go). Only burnt smelled burning rubber from "Supersube," a portion of 2 days. (The helpful folks at Canadian Tire said he'd recover). We've seen all varieties of wildlife (topic for future blog)...no moose yet. Tomorrow we'll visit where my summer home will be Fairbanks, AK.

Were you aware that are beautiful spacious skies places other than the US? The song never mentioned that. Go figure. I just made it to the "mainland" of AK today after spending essentially a week in that lovely state to the north. What's that you say? It's another country? Hmmm. Oh, Canada, right. It's good to be back it had been nearly a year. Far to long, I dare say.




















Above: Here are some spacious sky pics from the land of our friends to the north. It's true Canadians simply are friendlier. Just ask my mom! The view back towards Lake Louise from Six Glacier Trail. Yep, that's Canada!

Below: Driving through Northern British Columbia. Um & yes I was doing the driving whilst this picture was taken. (Don't tell my mom, er...I mean my dad, since mom was there.)














Below: The view on the hike up Sulphur Mtn in Banff, AB. Yes, another picture from the Canadian Rockies. Haven't been yet? What are you waiting for?















Below: A shout out to the Yukon. It's purty, no?

Hey Liz!
Sounds like a great trip so far! I wish I was there, i'm so jealous ! . . . so many memories from our road trip last summer. I've been thinking of you and praying for you as you travel. I look forward to hearing more stories. :)
