May 20th. I fixed the van's water system today.. with a DIY patch job to get the water systems working. We added some cabinet hardware and bunjee cables to the van to keep the cabinets from flying open while driving. Everyone is happy about that. We grabbed some supplies at the store and we hit the road headed East toward Tok. Alaska roads are extremely bumpy! I wonder to myself if this Van is in good shape enough for the drive, I was told it was but I am having my doubts as we bump down the road with everything making a tenacious racket. Either way, the adventure begins.
Stopped a few times to keep the old pupper happy, she likes to get in the water at every opportunity, she appears to be running hot and just wants to cool off and very thirsty. Spends all the time in the Van just panting and drooling on my leg. After maybe 70-80 miles, it was time to set camp for the night. I setup in the perpetual daylight in my trusty hammock, but I realized at this point in the journey that sleep was going to be hard to come by, as my Dad has to run a small honda generator ALL night long to run his oxygen machine or he says he will stop breathing. Ughhh!! Despite having some ear plugs, sleeping through the generator noise is next to impossible and the midnight sun glares down past my attempts to block it out.
I am happy to be on the road though, so spirits are high.
