From Prince George to Prince Rupert Day 12

As we drove along Queens Hi-Way 16 following the Sheena River the Scenery was breath taking. Agriculture plays an important role in the economy with mostly dairy and beef operations in the lush valleys. Lumber and paper mills are predominant in the forested areas with sustinent fishing present on the reservations. The closer we got to Prince Rupert we witnessed more sport fishing .
We are so looking forward to boarding the ferry and traveling up the inside passage To Haines AK.
That starts at 5:30 PM.Day 13

  2. Whew! We have 62 fires going today in AK. It was a smokey 4th in Fairbanks..we kept thinking we'd drive out of it but no such luck. Hopefully by the time you get off the ferry we'll have had some rain and you will be able to see something besides smoke! Lisa wants you to know if you are in her neck of the woods..call her! North Pole is only 10 miles from Fairbanks and she would love to see you! Here's her number 907-347-2462. Meeting at the property is works for us, unless you want to crash at our house first (kitchen, shower, and laundry facilities). Enjoy the trip on the ferry! See you soon. Kathy
