We were welcomed to Big Lake by Karen and family and soon Kari,
Charles, Travis and Wren arrived from Kodiak and Bill and Deanna arrived from Tennessee to complete the group. Karen provided lodging in exchange for all of our help packing and loading the Conex container which was scheduled to transport their belongings to New York State where they were moving. You can see Bill and I standing at the door of the container wondering if the household full of belongings and their large Ford SUV would fit inside. The following morning the kids played as the loading progressed. All day long we seemed to be making progress but were never sure it would all fit as the manager had assured Karen it would.
At the end of the day their house was pretty much empty and there was still room for the SUV to fit! You can see from the picture of Karen and family that they were relieved. You can also see the happy faces of eight people ready to climb into two vehicles for the journey down the ALCAN . Thus one adventure (loading the conex) ended and another started (driving the ALCAN).
