Yukon rearview

Best views yesterday (Monday) were in the rearview mirror. Felt like we were coming out of the country as we passed familiar landmarks. Stopped to see and sketch once at teslin   river with Simpson (?) Mountains in the background.

 Bought an Alaska hwy bumper sticker, as we are leaving that route on Tuesday. Heading south; having visited Watson Lake. Whitehorse, haines junction, Mayo, Eagle Plains, Dawson City, Pelly Crossing in the Yukon.

Started late out of Whitehorse, but did have a first cup of Tim Horton coffee. Ate well in Whitehorse, but I believe one meal came with gravy as a vegetable. Day two there (sinday) was as gray and cool as day one was gloriously sunny.

Spent an hour after dinner monday making a Tulsa skyline sign for erection in the Watson lake sign forest. Many thanks to the ladies at the visitor center for the helpful information about Cassier hwy. Best views will still be in rearview because we will be heading south into the sun.

Watson lake TV news is from Seattle, rather than Calgary or Toronto.
