2,899.05 car miles later, I sit in a motel waiting to enplane tomorrow for the island. Alaskan scenery is beautiful, and being able to virtually read at 11 pm with no light under the «midnight sun» is an amazing experience. We encountered stone sheep, black bear, moose and wood bison, one loon and one magpie [the lack of magpies was once a demarcation for me of having left the Mountain West behind when travelling to East Texas for college].
A new home, a new [is]land and a new life await ...
