We are in Whitehorse, Yukon. Camping in the woods. You get free firewood when you camp so we have had some great fires. I keep thinking of the radio show Sgt. Preston of the Yukon that I listen to as a kid and I am in the Yukon. It is snowing. The weather is cold in the mornings and cool in the days. We are at a wifi cafe and will go to the museums today and visit the old part of the city. Went to the Beringia museum. The museum had many ice age animals, snub nose bear, huge beaver, mammoth,etc. There were films that explained about the ice sheet that created Beringia thousands of years ago and how the people and animals crossed into Alaska. Great displays. Sorry we did not bring in the camera..We are going to Skagway on a narrow gage railroad Monday. Will have pics later.They need the table so I am signing off. Stay cool.
