Not too much to talk about for today. We got out of our tents around 8:00 and walked across the lawn to have breakfast in the restaurant. After a couple slow cooked pancakes we packed everything up and hit the road for another day in the saddle. I had driven this road before on my way back from Tok after Eric’s crash, so it was nice to see the same sights but without clouds and rain.

The frost heaves were back making the ride exciting. We would stand on the pegs for a few minutes at a time when the heaves were bad. We only made a couple of stops for gas and bathrooms with some photo time squeezed in. When we arrived in Tok we went to the Thompson Eagle Campsite that I researched the night before. We pulled into a neat narrow dirt road that snaked it way through the trees. There were a couple cabins, plenty of tent space and my teepee! I got dibs on it before we even arrived. Once inside my teepee I found a couple of Alaska magazines and two cots for sleeping. I noticed a few mosquitoes in there so I decided to bring in my tent to use as a bug house. So I pushed the cots aside and made my home within a home. The other guys are spread out down the road in there tents. We are sitting in the Grumpy Grizz for a late lunch. Now we relax and enjoy the campsite and small town of Tok, Alaska.
