Anderson to Fairbanks and back

After the rough night with the campers in Denali, Mr.Charley & I decided we’d seen enough, so we hit the road and headed up to Anderson  a day early. Since it wasn’t far, we got there relatively early; which was a good thing because the brakes on the truck were scrubbing so we dropped off the rig & headed up to Fairbanks. We found a Ford dealership but they said they couldn’t get started on it for a few hours. Annoyed  At least there was a Walmart nearby, so we walked over got a Subway for lunch & sat in the grass in the little rose garden on the corner. The girls sure enjoyed wallowing in the grass after all those rocks in Denali. A few hours later, we walked back over to Ford, they weren’t finished yet, but they said it wouldn’t be too much longer. I told Mr. Charley I’d walk back over to Walmart & get some groceries and he can come pick me up when the truck was ready. Another hour and a half later,(and a few hundred dollars)  he called and said he was checking out.
Time and Money……..Winking smile
By the time we got back we were tired, but we finished setting up; hung out with the folks for a little bit, then came in to chill out before going out to dinner.
We went to Clear Sky Lodge for the BEST steak in Alaska!  Great Food, Fun & Fellowship. The girls were happy with the leftovers when we got home.
I did get a few pics along the way:
I love the blue sky ….. and those clouds are fantastic

RV Riding means if you don’t like your neighbors you can pick up and move on
