This morning, June 19, we left Whitehorse and headed on up the road to Dawson City.  As of yesterday, we have been on the road for 4 weeks and it seems like just a few days! 

Went past a series of  lakes, rivers and streams, and not much else - you better come up to this area with Supplies, Fuel, etc, and not expect to find a restaurant or ANYTHING else!!!!  There are pullouts quite often, considering the remoteness..  We have our own food with, of course, so lunch is in our camper (skeeters are what we call "Prehistoric Pteridoctile Skeeters!")  


We did stop at a nice rest area at "Five Finger Rapids", very pretty!  And the wild roses were a WONDERFUL scent while we were having lunch!




Roadwork continues all summer it sounds like - frost heave this spring was particularly bad, the locals told us.


LOTS of "whoopydoos" and slow driving from Whitehorse to Dawson City...
Inside of camper took a sort of beating - some things fell of the counter that have NEVER fallen!  But nothing broken at all - Our first greeting to Dawson City:



We are in Dawson City till Sunday morning - So will see if I can post on here!  The internet is "Tengonet" and I HATE Tengonet!!!!  NOTHING but problems……  GRRRR!  

Lots to see in this town - gold mining, stores, shows, dinner theater, etc... Will know more by tomorrow night!  
Till then......................
