As my summer plans start to develop I thought I would do a little gloating (as not much else is going on). I am going to be back in the Lower 48 for the first month or two of summer. Between weddings and graduations I am going to look into fixing up an old car/truck. It has been suggested to me that everybody should drive the AL-CAN (Alaskan-Canadian Highway) for its scenic views. I am also taking the Empire Builder train from Chicago to Seattle.
The last month or two I am going to ride my bicycle around Nome, Ak. Nome was once a gold mining town and has an extensive network of roads that lead nowhere. I am going to camp where the roads end and bring the dog. The top two pictures are of my bike and trailer.
