No Puppy, and only one more day of Frost Heaves!!

Well we made it through yet another day of rough going on the road. Thank god we have only one more day of driving, I think the three of us are done. We should have known when the owner of the cabin we stayed in last night said that the roads are great on the way to Anchorage. He was full of (fill in your own word)! Yes there were areas that were freshly paved, but the areas that weren't were a nightmare. It was only supposed to take us 6 hours today according to the map software. Yeah, we left at 930 and got here at 530, and almost lost our lunch from the bouncing and bobbing. I don't think that the trailer should be doing bunny hops off the heaves. I'm pretty sure that it's not good for the trailer or the truck to do that. Hopefully tomm will be better.

Anyways, we ended up having a great stay at Burnt Paws. The cabin was great and we'd definitely stay there again. We did end up leaving without a new addition. Becca was ready to get one of the husky pups, but after looking them up on the Internet, we found that they are very high energy. (Not what we would want to deal with right now). Here is a picture of our accommodations for the night. After leaving this morning we ended up making our way to Anchorage and were able to see some amazing sights along the way. The glacial fields to the north east are amazing. Pictures can't even do them justice. So, in between bouncing off the roof of the truck I snuck peaks at the view.

Once in Anchorage tonight we got our last taste of the big city life for a while. We ended up eating at the Fancy Moose, located at the Millennium Hotel (location of the Iditorod Offices, and next to the largest sea plane base in the world). It was pretty cool to sit outside and watch the sea planes land and takeoff. After that we ended up making our way to Lowes and Home Depot. Picked up our blackout shades for the bedrooms, and some lattice for friends on Island. From now on out, it will be mail order for us. If we can't get it at Walmart, we probably don't need it (yeah right).

Tomorrow we are heading out on the last leg. We'll be traveling to Homer for our last day of driving. We hope to end the short drive early and get to enjoy the sights in Homer. Then onto the ferry Sat morning. Well that's all for tonight. Hope all is well with everyone, we'll post again tomm from Homer.
