Default Alaska Trip Summer 2013

Mary and I are headed up to Alaska.

I am going to try and keep this up to date every day or so. We'll see how that goes!

We are in Pigeon Forge right now for a wedding of some good friends.

Here's a pic of a dog riding on the back of a scooter at 70 mph headed toward the Smokies

I also like having my PV on bars as I see yours in pictures.
Gives some good info while on the ride.
Hope trip goes well and weather is good.
We are just heading to KY for afternoon.

Pigeon Forge is an awsome area. M3 and I with a friend will be headed down through that way at the end of June. Our destination is Maggie Valley in NC.

The reason we went east to Pigeon Forge before heading northwest...some friends, Al & Lisa, got hitched.



After the wedding we headed downtown...visited the Ole Smoky Moonshine shop



Had to taste all 12 flavors!




Woke up this morning to the reason they're called the Smokys-




A few minutes later...



Packed up and headed out thru 3 hours of rain til we finally hit some sunshine.




Went thru a good part of Tennessee, Kentucky and Illinois. Meant to get further, but 3 hours of 45-55 mph instead of 70-80 mph had us stopping about 100 miles short of expected.

Yeah, I am liking the PV! We came out of the rain somewhere in Kentucky today.

Yeah, the roads are great, Wheels of time is amazing...and we rode all the way out and just turned around and left...told Lydia (our grandbaby) that we'd be in Missoula, MT by Friday, and we got to ride 212-BearTooth Pass (our new favorite road) before then.

Thanks for the pics of the Smokies! Fond memories for me when I lived in Virginia and took many trips down the BRP to the Smokies.

Dennis, be carefull about having that Gas Can exposed like that whenever you are going through a Tunnel. I'm pretty sure it's illegal. Metal Can probably not but plastic is a no go. You might want to google it just to check, but I was told a long time ago that you can't have a plastic gas can exposed while going through a tunnel.
