A 15,000 Mile Trip from New Orleans to Alaska & Back
Monday, August 15, 2011
We had a bath in the river this morning. The water was warmer than the glacier lakes we’ve bathed in but still nice and chilly.
We drove through the beautiful wine/orchard country of BC. I loved the drive. We stopped at an awesome stand.
We got organic peach lemonade, some fresh all beef rolls, pickles, chicken and mushroom samosas, green peppers, pepperoni sticks, and fruit. Delicious, all of it.
Steve spotted the “Inniskillin” vineyard so we stopped, very excited. We all tried this ice wine at a Varisco family dinner at Meson 923 and loved it.
Then we crossed the border!
Home sweet USA!
Oh and it was the boys first day of school today!
We stopped at Dick’s for burgers then slept at our friend Matt Blaine’s beautiful cabin on Hayden Lake.
