Last night we camped in a Fred Meyer parking lot. Fred Myer is a store similar to a Super Wal-Mart. They allow RVs to park along the periphery of the store parking lot. During the morning we stopped at a visitor center where there was good internet, and I posted blogs of several of the previous days and checked the mail. We then started on our day’s journey. Along the way we stopped for several views and at a place were wood carvers demo and sell their products. They had a lot of interesting creations. There were bears, eagles, fish, moose, and people, among other things. You know Alaska is a lots larger than Texas and they have big furniture up here. Late in the day we finally made it to within 5 miles of Hope. There was a good place to park next to the Turnagain Arm. This is a large inlet named by Captain Cook. He sailed into it looking for the northwest passage. When he reached the end he had to turn around and named it Turnagain Arm. This body of water is about 37 miles long.
