Hi Everyone, Today was a driving day. We saw so many wonderful sights! We drove approx. 8 hours. Saw beautiful mountain ranges, the alaskan pipe line and moose with twins. The girls are doing well. Watch their video ( thanks to my class for this great new flip video). We stopped and had lunch at a small diner. Food is very expensive here. In major towns markets not so bad. Small town milk is around $8.00 a gallon. Sarah asked about the RV, It's not bad at all. The kids love it. They want to buy one. The only problem is the lack of storage and we are always asking "where did we put....? If the Pond Family is still viewing telling grampa Alaska really needs a Honey Dew. I make the worst coffee ever. No coffee chains! Hey mom & dad hope all is well. I have been getting your posts. Your can view them under comments. Pepere we saw some big fish today in the rivers. You would love the fishing here. We stopped at the North Pole today. The girls got to see Santa. He freaked them out when he asked where they were from and the said North Attleboro. He than said, Oh yes, I know you two you live near Lasalette(not sure if I spelt that right).They have beautiful lights, he stated. We are staying at a state camp in Fairbanks tonight. It's almost 10pm and it seems like 10am, the sun will set around 12:24 for 4 hours. Crazy! In the morning we will explore Fairbanks and than head to Denali National Park. Unsure if we will have any internet connection at the park. So you may not get a posting for a few days. We will spend two night there. If you are posting a comment and didn't leave a name at sign up, we don't know who you are. Can you try to give us a hint. Take care, miss you all

Moose are great (I've never seen one), but bears will be even better. I hope you see grizzlies! John D.
