One More Day in Juneau (this year)!

We are now in the final stretch of packing for the road trip down to Oregon.  Only one more day (Wednesday) before we leave early on Veteran's Day.  Mixed rain and snow in the forecast so it is time to head south.

Here is a picture of our home made temporary canopy on the truck, at Home Depot of all places.

Our friends have been making not too flattering comparisons to our packing and the truck in the Grapes of Wrath and how heavily loaded it was, so we decided to include a picture couple of pictures to let everyone know that we did not pack THAT heavily!  Of course, we haven't determined if the bicycles will fit in the back or on top of the cab.  If we do that, we will be a little bit more Joab-like!

So, as you can see, we are keeping our reputation of traveling light, compared to some other folks.  We are really looking forward to the ferry ride on the Kennicott and the drive down the Yellowhead Highway to Washington and Oregon.  Stay tuned and we will let you know how we are doing.

We hope that you are safe and warm where ever you are, and thanks for visiting our Blog,

Neil and Pamela
