north to alaska

May 25, 2008 04:26

i'm finally just in alaska. canada is much larger than you'd suspect and i think they lie about the size so that you'll keep buying gas, plunging deeper and deeper into the veldt, at 7.00/gallon+.

i have a number of back posts i'll tend to later, saved on my handy little OX.

the going is a bit hard, but i'll get to that later.

definately retuning as much in the us as possible. i think we'll swing through washington/oregon around the 28th/29th? the speed through canada will tell.

...

we were scrumming through the gravel deep in the yukon when we passed a little prius slowly rolling on the side of the road.

Note: we've seen several on the trip and i continue to agree they're handy little cars in good conditions. hell, we've even seen a smart car this trip.

we swung back around to check on them and a nice canuck lady said no, she was okay, she was just photographing garbage on the side of the road, she was alright.

she commented that we and the only other peaple that had checked on her today were americans. the canadians just drove by, she said.
