Hi Chad,
It looks like one day it is winter (8 months)and the next day it is summer (4 months). Does it really switch that fast?

DITTO on Nice Pics too


Hey Ken! How's that Citation treatin' ya? No, it doesn't really switch that fast. We had a nice break up after a long cold winter. But, our trees are just starting to geen up. We also just happen to catch the nicest and warmest weekend we've had since last July. Your estimation for summer and winter months is about right. Our summers are short but they sure are nice and the extra day light allows us to enjoy it a little more.

Outstanding! We need to get to Alaska. But that means driving through Canada and we don't have passports and travel with firearms including handguns. Not sure how to solve that problem anymore.

Thanks for the awesome pics! How far is it from Georgia? Let me see...4400 miles. Rats. Guess I'll have to wait to retirement for that trip. Dave.

---Hey Ken! How's that Citation treatin' ya?---
I'm heading to the factory Saturday morning. The dealership could not fix the slideout correctly. It is offcenter and won't go out with the motor. Eugene RV kept putting bandades on it. I'm not very happy with them.
Later, KEN

Keep posting pics. thanks

Go get a passport, and leave the guns at home.

Um, no and no. I don't travel without guns and I'm not getting a passport to drive to another part of our own country. But thanks for the sage advice...

Alaska State Ferry system.....Starts in Bellingham Washington then on to Alaska without stopping in Canada.

Marine Highway

We took the ferry trip 4 years ago it was a highlight of our Alaskan adventure. One of many highlights I might add.
