Traveling from the north to the south , heading to Florida this first coast town is often missed by many . This is a vacation paradise ! The beaches are just beautiful and both the locals and tourist alike are extreamly nice . This town puts on a fantastic 4th of July event that will knock your socks off !

North America » United States » Alaska August 8th 2007

Will add some more photos at a later date. Day 21 August 3 Traveled about 250 miles. Staying at Tolsona Wilderness Campground. This is the same campground we stayed at on July 28th. It is a very nice place and would highly recommend it to any Alaska travelers. It’s 13 miles west of Glennallen and the owners are friends of Karen and Gary. Our drive today took us through the Anchorage area. We made a quick stop to re-provision our expedition. We continue to be amazed at all the mountains. It’s hard to drive anywhere in the State and not see mountains. Managed to pick up 3 geocaches along the way. One was at the top of a bluff that took some climbing to get too. Of course I forgot to take my camera with to ... read more

The adventures of Big Al and the Geoose in Alaska got lost by our friends at TravelBlog.com. Their server crashed and all is lost. Fortunately we have copies of most of the blogs. Here are days 7-20. We will publish some photos when we have a chance. Day 7 July 20 340 miles Traveled - Camped at Takhini Hot Springs last night and took another hot bath. We had a good cold rain shower while we where in the hot springs. That cooled us down a bit. The first stop today on the Klondike Trail was at "Moms Bakery". Mom has great buns, that is cinnamon buns. Mon is known for her cinnamon buns all over the Yukon. Came across several wrecks during our drive. A motorcycle pulling a small trailer went off the road when ... read more

Sunday, June 24, 2007 The night was uneventful, temperature right, neighbors quiet, not much campfire smoke, and we slept until about nine or ten. Then the sun warmed the LER as usual and we had to get up and on with our journey. Back on Wisconsin 35 we headed northwest along the river to the small town of Alma. Eagle Eye Louie spotted a little café advertising its coffee and ice cream. Since that sounded like a good healthy breakfast we stopped and walked a little ways back. It was very small, but we did see that they served a quiche along with buns and a few other things. The coffee was made espresso style in a big old shiny brass espresso maker. We had good strong coffee and the quiche that came with a fat ... read more

North America » United States » North Carolina » Ocracoke August 7th 2007

This snap shot was taken while waiting for the Cedar Island ferry ride over to Ocracoke Island . Threating massive in size , dark clouds furiously rush over the docking station before boarding . This was an amazing site appearing in a 3D effect over the Island . Right before the downfall of the rain , the thunder rumbled over head ....announcing its mighty power , and adding its threating beauty to the Island ambiance . What seems to be a everyday event according to the locals...... does not last long, as it rushes out traveling the coast as fast as it had rushed in . When evening finally sets in and the day is a success , you can bask in the peace and traquility of the sunset over the coast and the seclusion from ... read more
