Today was a do nothing day. We drove around Anchorage looking for a small light bulb to replace the one over the stove. We have looked for it since Skagway and all the ones we have seen are either too big or too small. We picked up a couple at an RV store but they didn't work either. We drove around Anchorage for awhile looking for a laundry, thinking it would be cheaper than the one at the rv park. We found one but it was surrounded by inebriated First Nation citizens (drunk Indians). We actually had to stop to avoid running over two of them that couldn't decide which side of the road they prefered. We returned to camp and Pat and Delia (our friend from Idaho) went to the market. When they returned, Pat, Delia, and Gail (another friend) went to the RV park Laundry. Pat said it was the cheapest laundry we have encountered so far. At the last one it took over $30 in change to wash and dry the clothes.
While the ladies washed the clothes, Mike, Delias husband and Jim, Gails husband all sat around and played with Jim and Gails dachshunds (weiner dogs).
Tonight we had a birthday party for Gail and Lana. Most of the people on the tour participated. Lana is fom Escondido and is traveling with Jackie Kennedy, her niece.
One of the first dinners we had as a group we had a choice of baked salmon or a steak. Jackie was the only one that ordered a steak and I have been teasing her about it since. When we had a steak night I told them that Jackie wanted halibut. When we got ice cream I told Jackie they had halibut flavored ice cream, etc.
Pat just popped a circuit breaker. She was running the hair dryer and the small heater at the same time.
Tomorrow I'm going to get an oil change on the MH. I'll also fill it with gas for the trip to Homer. Thursday we take a train to Whittier and take a boat to view the glaciers. It will be an all day trip.

So much going on! Maybe Camping World has that bulb but you can't get it until you get home can you. Good for Jackie, eat the beef girl, stand up for what you want. Tell her she has a fan in Ramona. What did you do while the "girls" did the laundry? I don't see your name in the weiner list. How was your trip Thursday?
