Grumpy ??? ... well my wife seems to come up with that one more often than not ...

We have a lot of "mobile" miners ... they have been working the claim they took over from their father, etc. A lot of them don't like the winters (can't mine then) and travel to Arizona, Texas or Florida. Most folks like that are the "real mccoy". They are, not surprisingly, very conscious of their fuel use too!

You have travels far farther than most Canadians (and Americans for that matter) we live on a very big continent. I'll be watching what I do and how the Geo behaves in cold conditions and reporting back to all.

You were within 40 miles of my house ... I live in Whitehorse (where 65% of Yukoners live). You're right ... Yukon is not quite the size of Alaska with a population of 30,00 people, 6,500 grizzly bears, 70,000 moose and about 200,000 caribou! Hope your trip was enjoyable! My last trip to Skagway was July 11 to meet my sister who works on one of the cruse ships ... we may have passed each other?
Thanks to all for the comments and welcome ... I'll keep the blog going with car-related facts from the deep freeze, comment on the threads.
Keep up the quality work!
