I awoke sometime around 4am, still on east coast time. This morning was one of those precious clear summer days in Anchorage. We felt extremely guilty for leaving town. Before heading up the Parks Highway I took Hans to Kincaid Park so he could see my brother's memorial bench. We were amused that there was already a green Subaru in the parking lot, so I made sure to park right next to it. When we came back from the bench, a third green Subaru had shown up. Ha ha. We took our time getting out of town. We had a nice brunch at Middleway Cafe (one of our favorite spots) and got a few road snacks.
Six or so hours later we got to a somewhat drizzly Fairbanks. We went for a short walk downtown where the Chena River was significantly flooded (the interior had record rainfall this summer which continued for weeks after we flew back to Maryland).
Dinner was at our old haunt, Thai House. We collapsed fairly early.
