So it begins Michigan to the Mexico border to Alaska and back. Three JLUR and campers.

Man Ted, y'all talking about Alaska is making me miss it. So, how about a few more pics for when you return to the forum in a few days & get you psyched up.

Again, from the Denali highway, but in a rented JLU. Better than nothing, but I sure wish I would have had my JLUR.

Anyway...


And YES! The last one is Denali in the distance, got a brief glimpse.

Let the bar tab happen! You and Carla are on an adventure unlike 99.9% will ever see.

We stayed under a thousand. On the ship…… barely…. The excursions were the majority of the cost.

Carla is cool. Me I am a dork. Somehow it works out.

 

[wibornz]

How many are following this thread? I say we each throw in a buck or 2 for the bar tab! Who can make that happen?

nice gesture, but not necessary. I appreciate it. We are not big drinkers. I enjoy quality booze and well the drinks on the ship are not that kind of drink.

still super cool that you thought to do this for us.

The one on the Jeep was the other couple that was with them I thought.

Adventures Abound?

the YouTube channel is Adventure Abound. It is my channel. The other couple wanted to be YouTube famous. Me not so much so. I did make some videos, but it was way to labor intensive and got in the way of wheeling and hiking. The 20+ hours of editing each week was tiring. Plus getting everyone to cooperate during filming was trying my patientces.

What is Team Wibornz?

Team Wiborn is me and Carla. We have been married for almost 33 years and over the years when we struggled, we would power through and say Team Wiborn, We got this. It is basically what we would say when we had to tackle hardships.

As you can tell we are off the ship, stopped and grabbed the Jeep and just cleared custom and in Canada. More to come. Big thanks to @hickinwa for keeping our jeep and camper safe while we were on the cruise. Hickinwa was super cool to meet and I appreciate his generosity.

I hope I crosspaths with hickinwa in the future and get a chance to wheel with him. Great dude.

Well cleared custom with out any issues. Will start uploading some awesome photos soon. More to come and about 4063 KM to Dead Horse Alaska.

Next time I take the selfie, it looks like you photoshopped me in I look like a smurf
It was great to meet another member of the asylum.

Alright, just made camp and we are about 350 miles north of Seattle Washington in Canada. Now where to start……

the cruise was a good time and a needed break from the little camper. The ship was clean, the food was decent, sometimes great other times just okay. Service was awesome. The show where terrible. The excursions where great.

Off we go.

So the ship looks empty in the following shots because this is in the middle of the night. This is about as low as the sun went. I took these shots as I walked around the ship at or about 4 AM.

Notice the the clock it is about 0407 AM.

I did see whales from the deck of the ship.

Team Wibornz still following and enjoying pics etc. Be careful now and take care. Lots of lonely roads driving through Alaska. Stay safe!!!!

Babysitting my son's car kind of spoiled this shot.

The dent on the front came from my truck (backing up in "D"), there's also a nice sidewall swirl from a 35" KM2 on the same panel.
