Woke up nice and early today. Usually it rains in the early morning and is cloudy. Then it clears up and is beautiful. Today was another one of those great days. We had a much needed shower and some cinnamon buns from the center of the galactic cluster (whatever that means). Then we were off. We entered Yukon Territory today. This day could also be called wildlife day. We saw lots of mountain goats and stone sheep, wild mustangs, 2 black bear cubs, 3 mother black bears, buffalo, and another magnificent moose! We also stopped at Liard Hotsprings for a swim. It was amazing! We got some beer ($50 for an 18 pack) and got a site in Watson Lake. We also stopped at the signpost. It is a collection of signs from people all over the world who have traveled the Alaska Highway. An airforce officer from WWII started this trend. We did find several signs from Wisconsin there! We ended our day by riding our bikes to the only pub in town. Canadians don't drink like us Wisconsinites. The bar closed at 11:00. We did not even need to use our headlamps. We are well on our way now-only 1000 miles to go until we hit Anchorage!
