Only 5 months until we leave on a journey that will take us to Denali National Park. Today we started talking about things we wanted to do while we were at the park.
Now remember we will be pulling our fully self contained travel trailer complete with air conditioning and a wonderfully efficient furnace, nice running hot water and a flushing toilet. I said to B, why don't we take our little tent and plan to camp out one night in the park. She looked at me like I was a total stranger and went right back to her book.
I sure did pause in my thinking a bit before I said "Well Wonder Lake looks like a great campground." So not believing me yet again she sets her book aside and grabs her laptop. These are the first images she sees; Camping in Wonder Lake Not too bad she says. Can we get all our camping gear there? Well no I say it would be pretty primitive tenting; no cots, no two burner stove, no porta pot etc. Well that brought on quite a glare. She did admit that it sure was pretty though.
Wouldn't it be great if we could say that we spent the night camping in Denali? There is that have you met me before look again. Being the diligent researcher she continues to search for more info on Wonder Lake and suddenly these strange sounds begin to come from her vicinity. Then she shares this image; Essential Attire for Wonder Lake Why do you think these folks have mosquito head wear, long sleeves, long pants and gloves? Well maybe they forgot their repellent. Needless to say I have yet to hear anything beyond her final humph as she closed her laptop.
So stay tuned as we begin to plan and negotiate our adventure.
