Trip of a Lifetime
In 2008 my wife,Judy, and I got to take the trip of a lifetime. In a truck and camper with our old Labrador Retriever and accompanied by our good friends in another truck and camper, we covered 15,000 miles between Vermont and Alaska.
We were able to visit many parks, including Devil's Tower,Badlands, Yellowstone,Glacier,Denali and Kenai Fjords as well as Banff in Canada. We got off the path several times including side trips to Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories and Coldfoot, Alaska in the Arctic Circle.
The scenery was awesome and everytime we thought it couldn't possibly get any better, it did! The parks are truley a treasure, from the unspoiled scenery to the abundant wildlife. In Kenai Fjords Park alone we saw Whales, Sea Otters, Steller Sea Lions and Dolphins. the next dream is to do it again as soon as we can!
