well i am here. unfortunately no pictures yet cuz during my hairy cairy of moving i didn't realize that i needed a cord that i packed to put the pics on my computer. so that will come later.
We left on Wednesday the 17th. we just went to blackfoot to stay with brother in law but a car/cop chase broke out as we got there so the sky was lit up in the rosey glow of blue and red across the street. super fun.
we finally got really on the way on thursday and got not quit to Dillon MT when we had a tire blow out and was stuck on the side of the road for 3 hours. so our day ended with us not getting past Great Falls. a total of 400 miles. not bad but it took till 10 pm to do that.
friday was better. got through the Canadian border. they really do talk weird. it was the most boring drive from there. for three days flat, flat, flat. boring.
i do have to say if you ever travel to another country...exchange your money BEFORE you leave! they could not do the exchange rate and give me back the correct money and i got ripped off about $15 before i found a bank that would exchange. totally pissed off and flabergasted that they can't do math. really? Also on another note of that country...they do not know how to make maps. the map would show one thing and the actual streets and or highways it was completely different! we got completely lost in edmonton. looking for the largest mall in the country and we ended up in some suburb.
how do you miss a mall? go to canada.
but we got through the stupid county of Canada.
got to Alaska. i can't tell you how happy i was. we finally got home on monday about 6pm. a very long drive. i wouldn't recommend it it in a uhaul. it sucked.
but we did see lots of elk, 9 bears, a fox with a rabbit in its mouth (good for the fox!), a rabbit, deer, lots of buffalo, and finally a moose about a mile from my dad's house. the buffalo were eating gravel. who knows.
i will post pics later. and ps its raining here too.
