I'm leaving a soon as I can pack my long drawers... Let's see ...I turn right for Yellowknife and Fort Resolution... Better give me about three weeks... I will ask after you when I arrive..
So do I. On the Kenai or the Flowers River in August there is a long gray twilight to wonderwork in... There is no night... A Dusk-Land... I love it...
I have been in arctic Quebec,Labrador and Alaska.Always wanted to visit the Tree River during the Charr migration. Had I known you were there I surely would have stayed....
