We really needed a Shabbat and Liard won the toss. We could relax in the hot springs and being early in the season, there would be fewer people in the campground. We met some wonderful people in Dawson Creek (from Anchorage) and they arrived Friday evening at Liard along with two other couples from Ninilchik in the Kenai Peninsula. Everyone also had ties to Colorado so soaking in the springs made for some fun conversation. At the end the called us ‘Alaskans,’ lol. One couple has a boat and fishes in Homer for halibut and expect to visit us at Cooper Creek.

The Plague of Toad River
Because this is our second year to do the Alaska Highway, we are taking more time to stop and see those things we passed by last year. It’s not that we didn’t want to stop, we just wanted to make the best time to Alaska. This year, we have some time to spare and are taking our time.
Dawson Creek
One year ago today we were traveling through Quesnel, British Columbia when we had our tires slashed by a Canadian who hated America and Americans. One year later, we have had a trial and the man was acquitted even though we had taken a photo of the license plate and entered into evidence was the pick-axe. Apart from the lack of justice, a lot has happened in this past year from violence to having our first grandchild who lives on the Kenai Peninsula south of Anchorage.
