Day 45 Stop at Camp Tundra

I want to thank Tundra Tim and Klondike Kate for opening up their house to us again.  It is good to sleep in a bed you don’t have to close up in the morning once in awhile.

We rushed to make it through the Whittier Tunnel a one lane train and car tunnel.  The tunnel is 2.5 miles and is the longest shared tunnel in North America.  This was interesting and a little unnerving. I kept seeing safe room number 1, 2, 5, I stopped counting after 7.  Those rooms added to my let’s get through the tunnel quickly.  Being under a 13,300 mountain my only thought was no earthquakes. PLEASE!! You can learn more about the tunnel here  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portage_Glacier_Highway  

Very interesting read.  We got in to Anchorage and it was sunny and nice, no rain.  Roy dropped me off at Tim and Kate’s so I could start laundry, he went to get the trailer tires changed.  One was wearing a little, not bad for 5800 miles.

Dinner was very good, it was smoked tri-tip and some salad.  I don’t think I have had this before it was good.  I have enjoyed trying new food.
