RV Travel Is About Doing Things You Never Thought You Would!
In this episode, we take on three major highways: the Klondike Highway, the Top of the World Highway, and the Taylor Highway. These are some of the worst roads we've experienced but man, do they offer some killer views. We also share our time in Dawson City, a historic mining town that had its heyday during the Klondike Gold Rush in 1896. It's now famous for something else, the SourToe Cocktail- a shot of whiskey with a human toe- and you bet we tried it!

After seeing your travels all these years, it's eye opening to see how easy the truck camper makes it for you, compared to your prior rig. Looking forward to seeing your next video. 😊

Never heard of chicken Alaska! That’s pretty cool with the bar and underwear. I went to school with a couple of people from Alaska and they said they hardly ever saw darkness so you could never tell what time it was. I loved Canada myself living in Michigan we went there quite a bit. To different parts like Ontario, Toronto and other cities but can’t remember them. Can’t wait to see more video of Alaska. Your pies looked good! Have a great week and see you both soon! Safe travels.
We experienced the exploding underwear during our visit to Chicken last summer, from the cutting of the "panties" to the stuffing of the cannin, to the lift off, and return to land!

Oh that’s too funny! We wish we could see the whole event.
if you go to nova scotia you should go to newfoundland too. if you like whiskey you can buy good canadian whiskey in canada you can't get in the states. there's two brewers beer/whiskey in whitehorse that make really good single malt.
Even though these are old videos, I'm so glad you are posting again. I also love the newsletter.

Aww, thank you, Lori!
So just a little correction because it was put out twice, Alaska is the 49th state not 50th. Hawaii is #50. Its an Alaskan thing... 😊 Hope you enjoy our little state and place some of us call home!

Hey, Skyler's comment is correct. We were talking about Alaska being the 50th state we visited 😄
We were in Alaska the first part of July through the latter part of Aug in 2023. I knew about the 23 hrs of broad daylight while we were still at home, and thought about a sleep mask, tried it, claustrophobia made me ditch that idea after about 15 min. Opted for reflextic for the windows. It was a game changer. While hubby can sleep in broad daylight, I'm the exact opposite, and the total darkness totally worked. I agree, you lose track of time when it stays light all the time. We didn't take the "Top of the World Highway", we were worried about time since we only had a total of 2 months from start to finish...we live in east central Missouri.

Yes, Reflectix was a major help! I (Rae) also used a sleep mask because I hate any light when I sleep lol.
Never buy an RV trailer with one axle.

Man If only you could do a Mind Meld with those heading south out of Alaska?

That looked like fun. I’m not sure I would feel very comfortable in the bar. But I have heard of Chicken, Alaska. And I have no idea why.

The bar with the Sourtoe cocktail or the one with all the undergarments? Both were fun but I can see how they aren't for everyone.
I just bought your tank treatment product. I will definitely let you know my thoughts. I'm sure it will be great. I have purchased several items you have showcased in your videos, and I have not been disappointed yet.

The Dredge just outside of Dawson City seems bigger than that one at Chicken. Were you able to go inside the Dredge at Chicken, like the one at Dawson?

No you weren't able to. Thankfully, we did get to go in one on a tour in Fairbanks!

That's really nice to hear enthusiasm from Americans talk about enjoying their trip through Canada 🤗, cause no, most hardly say much instead say "can't wait to get to Alaska!"...(🫤). The way u talk about Canada Rae, is how I feel about wanting to travel your country and go see it! Hopefully eventually! We have a beautiful continent! 🍻

You totally do! We honestly can't wait to get back to Canada. We were planning on doing the Maritimes this summer, but something came up and we had to cancel those plans ☹️
