August 29, 2009 – Friends and the Yukon

The first part of the day was spent doing laundry and picking up some groceries.

We spent the evening with Jan and Ken, fellow Escapees, getting caught up with each other and having a great time chatting.

Here we are:

It was great to see them and hopefully we will meet further on down the road.   Jan and Ken, safe travels.

Andy and I took a little ride before heading back to the MH.  The mighty Yukon River:

Another view of the Yukon, going thru Miles Canyon.  This is the way many of the gold rushers came on their way to Dawson City.  There used to be nasty rapids here where many lost their lives and cargo until they put in tram lines to help guide the ships.   There is now a dam that helps the water flow so many of the rapids are now gone.

Another great day!!!

And I am feeling better – it must have been the boat trip – oh my!
