Summer Update

       
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.
