Highway 83

 

Highway 83 has been very good to us.  We’ve been on it almost all the way so far.  Not like the freeway at all.  It slows down and goes through every small town.  Just like the old days.

 

It is one of the longest highways in America.  It goes 1,894 miles from the Canadian border above Westhope, ND to Brownsville, TX.  We’ve driven most every part of it on one trip or another.  (In fact, on Google Maps, it goes all the way up to Swan River in Manitoba, but we haven’t driven that part.)  We’re going to leave it soon when we turn left on Interstate 70 just above Oakley.

 

Tonight we’re at Lake Scott State Park.

 

This is the warmest sunniest day we’ve had so far this trip.

3,343 miles to Fairbanks.  This driving to Alaska thing is easy.  In 530 miles, we’ll be a third of the way there!

 

Canada geese and kids.
