We are actively planning our trip to Alaska. Actually, we have been planning the trip for a year now. Our friends who were to accompany us have bowed out due to work conflicts, so now we will be solo. Each week, sees new additions or subtractions to our pile of gear for the trip. When the trip will last almost three months, there is a great deal of planning to be done.
First, an explanation might be in order. We are planning a trip driving through Canada, wandering around Alaska, then driving back through Canada on our return leg. Vehicle preparation has been our focus lately with the addition of gas cans to our Four Wheel Popup Camper. Every spare inch of space inside the camper must either serve multiple purposes or must be efficiently used for its chosen purpose. Now that we have made a few changes and additions, we need to test them out.
So this next week we are making a trial run by taking a Spring Break trip with our grandson, Max. He has no idea he will be serving as a guinea pig on this camping trip to Arizona. Between us, we will all decide what works and what does not work. What is useful and necessary and what is not. This week long adventure we give us good ideas about storage space which is our primary need...we have very little!
I will continue to add details to this blog as the date for our start grows closer.
