I spent a good time this afternoon washing, waxing and detailing the C900. As soon as I finished the light overcast day opened up into a glorious sunny summer day. Time to go for a drive! Since the car was as clean as it will ever be I didn't want bugs smashing in the glass and paint, I took it easy, drove slow and enjoyed the warm air. I drove to ...

I woke up to a gray day (as it's usual in these parts) just as we were approaching Ketchikan. We spent most of the day anchored in Ketchikan. We had a few ...
Today was a day full of things that were unexpected. In the end everything worked out and all the unexpected stuff turned out for the best. First let me say a few words about my sleeping place... the Kluane Park Inn was the only place that had rooms available when I rolled in last night. All the good places were full so I took a room above a bar, and that two good things I can say is that the mattress was smooth and there were no bed bugs. The walls were wafer thin, so right before ...
