It appears that the trip to Alaska is at our door! I thought it was a bit further off, but we're leaving on Thursday to maximize our time on the road.

Synopsis:
Leave Date: 9 May 07
Arrival Date: 25 May 07
Travel Days: 17
Total Miles: 5,300
Why?: I'm in the USAF and is being relocated from Oklahoma City (Tinker AFB) to Anchorage (Elmendorf AFB). I'm an ABM on the E-3 AWACS (more on that later).

The Plan:
West to Flagstaff and the Grand Canyon
Northwest to Las Vegas
Through Death Valley to Yosimite
Across to San Francisco
North to Redwood
Continue North to Portland
Next to Seattle
Cross the border to Vancouver
North through Canada via the Alcan Highway
Arrive in Anchorage with no breakdowns, flats, or freaked out cats

More to come soon on our last minute packing process!
