Day 15 - leaving Denali behind

Ken worked remote today - third time this week! Meanwhile, the children and I did our laundry, cleaned the camper and car, hitched up and did all the camper "stuff" to prepare to move on.  My parents readied their camper similarly, then Dad dumped the tanks in both campers (THANK YOU, Dad!). Once Ken finished work, we got a quick photo at the Denali entrance sign and made our way to a rest area / view point about 75 miles north of Anchorage for the night.

Here is the view from our overnight destination:



On a clear day, Denali can be seen from here, but today is not that day.

Skipping stones

Making dinner.  The boys were on KP for lunch, so the girls had cleanup for dinner.  (I didn't get a pic of cleanup.)

Tomorrow morning we head to Anchorage for some vehicle maintenance.  No worries, nothing to be concerned about, all the vehicles are running smoothly, but Dad needs his tires rotated and we need an oil change and new tires on our SUV.  We knew that was a possibility before we left as these are the same tires that made at least one FL trip, and the 8000+mi cross-country road trip in 2016.  Most of the miles on these tires have been towing, we and are glad that it is here in AK and not in Canada where we would have also had to pay duty.
