Trip thus far

We arrived in Denali last night. It was a long day of traveling, and once again, Aaron was a trooper. We are staying outside the park in a small town. We are in an RV park and hotel. Today is kind of a catch up day for everyone. We are doing some research about what we are going to do while we are here and getting some gift shopping done. It's pretty windy here, but the sun is out and it's about 50 or 60 degrees outside. The mountains are surrounding us and it's just gorgeous. I can't wait to get on the trails and do some hiking. We have only gone on 1 hike since we've been in Alaska and I'm ready to do some serious exploring now. We will be here several days, so things will get more organized and easier. The best news...there is a coffee shop just around the corner from our camper...yeah! Here are a few pictures that I haven't posted yet.


This is pretty much what he looks like a lot of the time...
so happy!
