Epilogue

This morning we ate breakfast, reminisced, talked about seeing each other again, and then said our goodbyes.  It is amazing how fast the time went.  58 days seems like a long time when you start out on this trip.  After all, it’s almost two months!  But it is over before you know it and all you have left are lots of pictures, wonderful memories and a whole bunch of new friends.

GOODBYE EVERYONE 

We have enjoyed our time with each and every one of you.  We thank you for all your support and assistance along the way.  As we told you, for us, it is the people who make the trip.  Yes, Alaska is splendid, magnificent, awesome and many, many more adjectives; we will all remember that part of it.  But what we will also remember will be those we made this journey with. 

We wish you well.  Travel safe, keep in touch and we hope to see you “down the road.”
