We're back!

Day 53

My my how the time has gone by. My apologies for those out there who actually check in on us to see where we are and what we are doing. Alaska was amazing, and Canada had some breathtaking scenery along the way. However.... cell phone signals and WIFI are not a thing the frozen land of the north has learned about yet. The update has taken so long because I literally couldn't work on this. Our phones rarely caught a signal in the last 2,049 miles we have traveled. Sure there has been some facebook updates but that doesn't fully display our lack of signal. Katie is able to slap those up while we drive, in between cities and hotspots. It wasn't uncommon for the update to take all day. Sadly even the couple of RV parks we stayed at had crap for WIFI due to it being satellite. You could open an e-mail and that was about it. The bandwidth just didn't support loading pictures and editing the site. Alas even now here in Washington state I used our "allotment" of data just uploading pictures to the computer and downloading one movie to my tablet.
When we do finally run into a place with decent WIFI I'll put a whole lot of things on here for your guys to scroll through. But for now, just a few choice teaser pictures since I'm sucking up our data plan from verizon.
​Stay tuned for more.... I'll be keeping up.
