Travels of Lucas & Cynthia
For a week we had spent our free time planning what our 3 day weekend would consist of. At first we had plans to go to Chena Hot Springs and just relax while we also had thoughts of finding an abandoned town or mine to explore but we were not very successful in that mission. …

We finally made it! 9 days on the road and we are finally here! Relief and excitement overcome both of us as we make it all this way without hardly any hassle at all, and only a few days until we start our job. As we make our way through the border and hit the …
On our travels during the Alaskan Highway we stumble across The Sign Post Forest in Watson Lake. Travelers from around the world have been bringing signposts from their hometowns to the Sign Post Forest since 1942. We stopped and walked around and of course had to add our own!

We finally make it to the Canadian Border! What a unbelievable moment. 5 days, 2,100 miles and $430 in fuel, who would of thought this moment would actually be here. From all the research we did before we left, I'm pretty sure we were OVER prepared. Not even two minutes and a few questions later and we …
At this point we have traveled 3 days, approximately 1,500 miles and have gone through $280 in fuel. Not to bad! We woke up fairly early and the road around 8:30am. During our trip today we start to see American flags at almost every house that we passed on the road. Minnesota sure does show …
