Palmer,Alaska

The day started out beautiful no rain yes. Our first stop Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Museum where we started with a video on the dogs and how they are trained and cared for.  What a great find this is so intresting next we stepped outside and go for a ride on the sled. Moving on we tried the Museum of Alaska Transportation & Industry we arrived and decided nope we didn't think this place would hold our attention so we moved on. We found a Farmers Market some produce and handcrafted items weather was beautiful and just being outside was great.Our final stop Wal-mart for a few items that were needed. And back to the rigs to make arrangments for 3 more nights we will be leaving Sunday morning.

Elk's lodge in Palmer

Since the last blog we have been in Hope,Ak where Harry and Bill did some gold panning and had a great time even picked up some gold to take home. We stayed RV park with weak signal so no blog that night. The next morning off to Seward about a 100 miles away. Went and did some sight seeing and checked out the Sealife Center that was a must see up close and personal with the Sealions at the aquarium. We stayed just outside of Seward in a nice RV park next to a creek we could hear the water running from our rigs. Our kids checked in and wished their dad Happy Fathers Day for Bill and Harry it was a nice easy day. We put our heads together once again and decided We would head down to Palmer for the Elk's Lodge for a couple of days again right next to the water we are doing really well right now staying near water. We will check out Visitors Center tomorrow see what going on this week around here and decide how long we will be here.

Beluga Lookout RV Park

Our last day here  so laundry is a must. We are in a slow mode today Harry is doing things to get us ready for in the morning like repacking the basement. We decided on lunch/dinner out today while going down the road we stopped at a couple yardsale and checked out Visitor Center in Soldotna a really nice place off the river, we watch a couple guys clean about 9 salmon and fed the seagulls. The weather was just beautiful all day. Checked out the town Hardware store which was well stocked had a great selection. Last but not the least we went to The Moose Is Loose bakery of course we went home with donuts and so worth the stop.
