August 29, 2007, Valdez to Tok, AK

Today was another 250-mile day. We saw many mountains with glaciers. The highlight of the trip was stopping about 60 miles from Tok to visit Henry and Margaret Scott. Henry grew up in Avon Park. He moved to Alaska over 40 years ago. He was a patient of mine one winter over 30 years ago when he visited his family in Avon Park. He has several relatives who have been patients of mine. We had a nice visit with them and enjoyed the "million dollar view" from their living room and porch. These were Henry's words, and we agree. Their home is on a bluff overlooking the above river. You can see snow-capped mountains over 100 miles away.
