Tok, Alaska, USA

7/4/10

We only traveled about 100 miles today as we wanted to spend July 4th in the USA. Got to Tok about noon, just as they were starting their 4th of July parade. We saw the Color Guard, so we quickly parked the trailer, and by the time we got back it was over. It lasted about 5 minutes--Midvales is bigger! Once again, we drove here in the rain, but it did clear up and the sun came out--it was beautiful. I went across the street the Three Bears Trading post and got my revolver that I shipped up. Went to the Visitors Center to get the lay of the land around here as we are staying 4 nights here. We met a couple in Teslin Lake RV park that we keep bumping into, and last night we had them over for dinner. Sherry brought a dump cake and we ate and talked (I would say till dark, but it doesn't get dark). Had a good evening with them.
