The start of our Great (Interior) Alaska road trip started with a fantastic ferry ride up to Haines, then the Kluane Chilkat International Bike Race. Team members were Kristen (leg 1&2), Anthony (3&4), Matt (5&6), and Connor (7&8). Carrie and Torsten provided fantastic support!

The bike ride was truly fantastic this year–great weather the whole way. And Chip really outdid himself, riding the whole thing!
We made it home–great to be here. Matt missed the parade on the 4th (to fly up to Lemon Creek Glacier) but Carrie and Torsten enjoyed it w/ Laurie and Garrett (the “candy float” was Torsten’s favorite. Look at this weather:
We are marauding around Alaska (ok, camping and catching up with friends). We sometimes get cell phone coverage to plan the next few days and I’ve tried to update once or twice. Apparently the photos aren’t getting through, so you’ll just have to imagine.. We’ll be home on Saturday July 4.
Great time at chuvena! Now slowly heading back home. We are camping at the matanuska glacier tonightn
Heading in to Chuvena. Great trip so far! Half way!n
On the ferry, heading to haines to start two weeks up north. Bye auke bay!
Or paint job at least, on the plane next to me at Juneau airport. Rain is back so it is a good time for a quick trip south.
Bluegrass camp with Bearfoot Bluegrass–Torsten is loving it, and doing well. He is getting lots of fiddle and guitar lessons. He went out for his first round of busking with Kate and 7 students–the youngest group out, and they made $26!

It is a little cloudy this morning (Monday), but yesterday was another blue sky perfect Juneautopia day.. We went for brunch to the Kleins (and just hung out on the deck in the sun for about 5 hours, I think!!). Checked out the tree house, tried to keep from too much sunburn.. Torsten and Garrett had fun roller blading, scootering, swinging, water fighting, etc..
