I will write the how story soon, but I had to let it be known that I had a blast in Fairbanks Alaska. I know that it is not much to look at, there is not much to do, it has lots of foul weather (home of the 40-50 below) and the downtown is (in short) pathetic. BUT - I got lucky, the weather kicked into gear when I was there. I met some really nice people and was "shown the town".
The highlight of the trip was my version of Ice Road Truckers, Spring Edition. With a new friend, I traveled up the Dalton Highway past the official Arctic Cicle line. Honestly, it did not look like anything I was expecting. With the Black Spruce and Aspen trees, the fire damage and the wildlife, it had lots in common the with the upper Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
I have lots of stories and pictures to share... stay tuned for typical Janine travel craziness.
I just could not wait to get that off my chest!!!
