Day 29

I cannot take the rain anymore. Everything is damp and smells and we cannot see any scenery nor do anything. I suppose Seward is probably pretty, but we cannot enjoy it. We picked up our fish from the packager and headed toward Valdez. I could fit only about a fourth of our fish in the freezer so I figured we would stop in Anchorage for some fish boxes and ship them in the mail. The rain stopped about 50 miles from Seward. Finally. We got to anchorage and bought boxes and packaging stuff and got the fish ready to ship. We called the post office and found out we had missed the cutoff for overnight shipping. We also found out it would cost dang near 200 bucks to overnight it home. We had a crazy idea. We bought a freezer from wal mart and took out the dinner table in the RV. We replaced it with the freezer. We will keep it plugged in while at campsites and just keep it shut while we are driving. The freezer cost less than shipping and we will at least get something for it. It is a crazy thing to do but there I nothing a Bajan loves more than a whole lotta fish. We continued on the drive to Valdez. You drive down a highway called the Richardsom highway. It is breathtaking as it winds through glacier fields and spectacular views. Every now and then the Alaska pipeline parallels the road. We arrived in Valdez late. We got set up and went to bed. I am not sure what we are doing tomorrow.
