It seems these five weeks are blasting past. We have plugged a lot of activities into the time, along with working (albeit 4 days a week) and gardening. I think Lawrie actually did most of the garden work though. Now we focus on just seeing Whitehorse, and that was fun. When you live in a place, you do see things, but not really look at them very often. Having Ruth visit and also being aware that this is our last summer here was a great opportunity to really look at the interesting things in this city we have called home for the last 13 years. So here are a few of the photos I took, many more are found by clicking here or go to Photos and explore from there.

So week number 4 and there are too many options of what we could do this weekend. In the end we decide to sleep in our own beds, do a day trip to see Skagway and then whatever after.

Bright and early, maybe about 10 am, we are on the road to Skagway. Of course we have to stop at Emerald Lake, Carcross, and a couple other pretty places.

Skagway doesn’t change its essence much. It is always fun to visit though. Interesting to see how many cruise ships are in and what the Americans are wearing this year. Okay, that is more gag me, than fun. It was a beautiful warm day and we did enjoy ourselves.

We stopped at the world smallest desert just out of Carcross on the way home. Lawrie and I haven’t ever stopped here, so now is the opportunity. The sand was warm and nice to walk on with bare feet.
