8-6-09 Fairbanks, AK

8-6-09: During our drive, I (Patty) saw a female moose trotting out of the lodgepole pine toward the highway so I hit the brakes to allow her an uneventful crossing; it would have been more of an event to us and our van since colliding with a moose is never a good thing. We rode by North Pole, AK and made it to our destination of Fairbanks. The weather was wet, cloudy and smoky, and in the mid-50s (F degrees). We set up camp and Mike took the kids to a Pioneer Museum while I did laundry.

We had originally wanted to visit the University of Alaska-Fairbanks museum but decided to wait until tomorrow since it would be closing in a few hours.
