Road trip time! Kentucky to Alaska in our new SCREW!

[SonnyAK]

I knew the beaver comment would get some attention!! Nobody likes big beavers!!

Those are some really great looking Vettes!! I really like the older cars!

If anyone ever gets up to Alaska, be sure to give me a yell!!

We started off this morning with a good breakfast in Cheyenne at a little restaurant that was made from a rail car - it had been there since 1923!!

Then te Raptor got its first taste of snow in Wyoming (it'll see a lot more of that soon!)

Then we drove past "Hells Half Acre"...My girlfriend read that some of the scenes from Starship Troopers were shot there! More random info!!

Then, just as we passed into Montanna, we saw the Raptor Country information sign, so we ha to stop for a photo!!

Now we're in Billings for the night and will be hitting the road once again tomorrow!!

Have a safe trip! Diners like those always have the best food.

Cannot wait to do a road trip in the Raptor. Have a safe and fun trip dude, and of course keep the pictures coming!

The little diners are definitely the best!! We try to never eat at chain places!!

The Raptor has definitely been a good trip truck so far - the thing is amazingly comfortable - almost too much!!

I think everyone should do a few really big epic road trips in their lifetime!!

Thanks for all the well wishes!

Drove across Montana today and saw some pretty country while heading down the road...

My girlfriend wants to keep taking photos of the dinasaur stuff along the way...I think she was fascinated with them when she was a kid...

Getting a bit closer to the Canadian border...

The Raptor's first Border crossing...The agent liked the truck!

While we were waiting to cross, I noticed this moveable concrete barrier...If you look closely, it was cast in a mold that has several cow's butts on it!! Why in the world would they do that?? Any ideas??

We stopped in Lethbridge for the night and saw a really clean white SCREW while heading to dinner...wish I could've gotten a photo!

Because a cow's ass is the last think you'll see before all the moose?

Beautiful countryside. Thanks again for sharing.

A few photos from the days drive...

Even the barns in Canada are happy!

Approaching the Canadian Rockies, just outside of Calgary

Driving to Banff National Park...One of the many animal bridges they have across the road

Banff to Jasper drive photos...

One of the big snow buggies for driving onto one of the glaciers...Makes the Raptor look a bit small huh??

Finished the day in Grande Prairie, Alberta...Should get back to Alaska on Sunday! The truck's doing great and the trips been a blast so far!

I knew everyone would want to see the Worlds Largest Beaver as soon as possible...so here it is!!

Not quite as scary as the alternative, huh??

Here's the start of the Alaska highway, so were officially on it now!
