Trip Home
Well, like the old saying goes, “all good things must come
to an end”, so has this wonderful trip / adventure to Alaska.
After Rapid City, SD and Custer State Park, we continued our
trek home. Drove through the outskirts of the Badlands
of SD.
We made a side trip into Sioux Falls, SD. We visited Blue Beacon truck and RV
wash. We had both RVs and tow vehicles professionally
washed and scrubbed. We left there very
pleased on how both our vehicles looked and shined. We just kept praying it would not rain.
Spent one night in Plankinton and last night we spend it in Onawa,
IA. We said good bye to our friends Claude, Bobbi and
their dog, Squeaker, who came to meet us at Glacier National Park. We hope to be seeing them again later this
winter in Texas.
Since it was only 400 miles and a 6 hour ride, we decided to
attempt the drive without stopping anywhere for the night. It turned out to be
7.5 hrs including stops for fuel and lunch.
We arrived home at 2:30 pm Friday afternoon.
We are tired but exhilarated by the completion of an adventure
of a lifetime. No doubt the memories
will surely last just as long.
We want to thank all our friends and family that “traveled
with us” on this journey. The comments
you provided encouraged us to continue writing, taking pictures and posting our
adventures almost nightly. We enjoyed
doing it.
‘Till next adventure…
Glad you made it home OK. We got home at 4:00pm today (Saturday)
