[2011 Boundary Waters]

Boundary Waters 2011

Pre-trip

For years I’ve been saying that I want to take a trip up to the Boundary Waters.  I was fortunate enough to attend a presentation by the Friends of the Boundary Waters Executive Director, Paul Danicic, last night.  If you get a chance, check out this video Precious Waters, which speaks volumes to the threats to the wilderness from mining.

[2010 Alaska]

Day 30: July 2nd: 1st Cody's Birthday!!!!

We had a late breakfast treat at Johnson’s Crossing Campground Services 203 miles from Watson Lake on the Alaska Highway.  They were noted by some literature to have the world’s best Cinnamon Buns and we had to check it out.  It is difficult to say anything is better than Scott’s mom’s cooking, but if we excluded Meme’s exceptional cinnamon rolls, then these would be fabulously delicious too.  They had raisins rolled in with the cinnamon and brown sugar which added a nice flavor to the rolls.
