We left Chicken and drove to Tok. We stopped at the city information center and the government information center. We ate a Halibut sandwich at Fast Eddie's (this place was recommended to us). We got gas, propane and potable water. A fill up allowed you a free car and trailer wash. After driving the Top of the World highway on gravel you really need it. Tok is called the car washing capitol of Alaska. We saw a moose on the side of the road today. We drove about 80 miles out of Tok towards Fairbanks and stopped a the Gerstle River Bridge to camp. We drove onto the gravel bar by the river and had an awesome view. The snow covered mountains to one side, the river next to us and the 1944 suspension bridge to the other side. No one but us there. Lots of wildflowers. Beverlee, Vicki and I had my chocolate wine from Holland that Allen gave me for Mother's Day.
