Chilly this morning, up at 0500.  I thought, gee, I should try the internet now and guess what I got on!!!!  checked my email and try to say something here.   I've had problems getting online with my computer and need to be plugged in also as the battery only last 5 min or so.  A good blog to check is   ericandmac.blogspot.com   Eric is writing it and posting some great pics.  He is a lot more informative than I am   We leave Sat morning!!!!  We have a drivers meeting today.

finally got online and now sprinkline

ericandmac on this blog have a great summary of out trip and I bellieve some pics.  I'm having problems with getting online lastnight and this morning.  Now I get online and starting to sprinkle so this will be short. 

We got in yesterday afternoon to Dawson Creek, BC.  I met M38 Mike and his group.  His all electric M38 is beautiful and dead quiet driving around thru camp.  He is camped right across from me and since I don't have power in my tent he graciously shares his camp site power with me. 

We have had beautiful weather and scenery so far.  I saw an eagle Tues, and 2 mountain goats standing alongs side the road the oter day.  I have a picture but am having troubles loading them onto computer so maybe later.  Dawson City is bigger than I expected.  We are staying at the appropriately named Mile 0 campground
