About this blog

After the past three years heading out to Asia, this year we will stick close to home (at least for us0. My wife and I have been planning this trip to Alaska for several years. The bad news is the fact that the price of gas has gone up so much this year - and we have a diesel. After much thought we are still going this year since gas could be $10 a gallon next year. To keep within our budget we will cut down on food costs (we were planning on going out to a restaurant once a day but now we will eat in more - the good thing about having an RV). So please visit us this summer as we take this trip of a lifetime - we just hope the RV makes it too (who knows what misadventures we'll have). Please feel free to e-mail us at scoonpooh@bellsouth.net
