RE: It's offical, Spring is here in Anchorage!

We were in the Itasca Suncruiser Class A with a platform on the back wrapped in a blue tarp and we were in the hookups on the bike path. Spot R84 to be exact. Seward was busy this weekend. Don't think there will much chance of getting hookups along the water soon, at least not if it is on a Friday :(

RE: It's offical, Spring is here in Anchorage!

We are going to Seward also this weekend. Look for us in a Big Horn 5th Wheel and a big silver Dodge Megacab.
Stop by and say hello.
I think I saw you as you were just setting up...were you on the back side on the end of the hookups...Resurrection campground? I did want to stop by, but we ended up losing track of time. Hope you had fun!

Well, right now it is sunny and 58 degrees. I know that sounds cold, but it really does feel warm.

RE: It's offical, Spring is here in Anchorage!

So, did anyone else go out last weekend or going this upcoming? We are hitting Seward again. Sealife Center is free on the 10th of every month for Alaskan residents.

RE: It's offical, Spring is here in Anchorage!

Well, we are parked on the waterfront in Seward right now watching a harbor seal and an otter just 50 feet in front frolicking in the water...no wind and the sun came out in nice spurts. Glad to start off the season!

RE: Alaskans-sound off

So, has anyone gone south yet? We are planning on going to Seward next weekend (would have gone sooner if this darn white stuff hadn't shown it's presence again :() and I am curious as to how the frost heaves are. Last year when we had gone at the end of April, they were horrible and unmarked.

I look forward to hearing how the beach is looking in Homer...changes so much year to year. We go to Homer over the 4th of July and dry camp across from the lagoon. That is definitely a week I look forward to every year :)

RE: Alaskans-sound off

Well, we brought ours home yesterday to start the spring cleaning. Didn't realize how much I missed it until getting in there again :) Washed all the bedding and we are wiping it down today. Now...the hard part is reorganizing. We got our Class A a month into the season last year, so this will be our first full season. From experience of our last one, it usually takes me a good couple years before I know where I want everything LOL!
Off to Seward in a few short weeks to watch the gray whales (hopefully).

RE: Alaskans-sound off

I seem to recall that it was about 3% of final sale. When we did it, they don't charge anything for the first 60 days on the lot, but we had to have Karen's RV inspect it first and that was about $350. We had tried putting it up ourselves at the end of the season the year before and when it didn't sell, we didn't want to hassle with at the start of the next season.

RE: Alaskans-sound off

Hey JC - how long have you had your toy hauler up for sale? We had a hard time selling our Class C last year so put it up at RV Exchange and it sold within a couple weeks. Just a thought for you.

RE: Alaskans-sound off

We have a class A and DH wants to bring it home this Thursday so we can start our "Spring Cleaning" of it. We need to wash all the linens and air it out. I really want to shampoo the carpet before starting the season. We have already started buying to stock it for the summer. Our first trip will be around the same time as JCGibson's. We start off the season in Seward since no other places are really open until Memorial Day...little chilly there, but all the more reason to enjoy the campfire. Our times are spent mostly chasing the fish around on the Kenai and weekends where the fishing is slow we love to relax at Quartz Creek or Willow...Have never been to Eklutna Lake but would love to go, as well as Hidden Lake. I hear though that if you want to get a spot, you need to head out on a Thursday. That's tough to do since we are working. :( I really wish that Girdwood had an RV park.

RE: How often do you do it?

From May 1st, as soon as we are able to get the RV out (due to snow) until the end of September, we go EVERY weekend. Literally.
