A New Journey Begins

06/15 -06/17  North to Alaska. Well our Journey to check AK off  the bucket list began on June 14th.  We left our driveway the afternoon  and drove a whopping 4 miles down to happy valley to meet up with our friend and fellow AK traveler, Bob Bishop and to say our farewells to the Happy Valley, happy hour crowd of friends.   We headed out early on June 15 and set our first destination as Boggy Draw outside of Delores, CO.  A favorite bicycling and camping spot to get back into the rhythm of RV life.   We spent 2 nights there and although initially the weather did not seem too fair for bicycling, the rain stopped and we had a great day of riding.  Sierra, a Nova Scotia Duck Toller, and a recent and welcome addition to our trip enjoyed the run along with the bikes as well and kept up beautifully.   We have found our Water supply to be painfully small and so we are getting back into major conservation mode.   We have also found that with our small Fuel tank and the weight of our gear,  we will need to keep make frequent fuel stops as we head north.  Feels great to be back traveling again even if it is land cruising.   Looking forward to the many adventures ahead.
