what was it like driving the alaska highway?

Where do I begin? Well, for one, it certainly gave new meaning to “Next gas 350km” that’s for sure. One of the few spots I fueled up along the way, Toad River Lodge:

Complete with a funny looking toad on the side of the building. Welcome to my pad? I’m sorry- but that cracks me up:

An old-school gas pump:

…and about 500 dusty random hats left from truckers and other over the years:

Not knowing what was going to be along the way, so I’d run into places like this is was perfect. I love unplanned surprises.

More to come from Alaska and beyond!
