In Watson Lake, Yukon, in 1942, private
Carl Lindley built a simple signpost pointing out the distances to various points along the
ALCAN and added a sign with the distance to his home town. Now, there are over 70,000 signs as travelers add more each year.
Michele and I collaborated on our sign (except spell check) and I created it with suggestions from my friends at
Springfield Pottery before the expedition started. Yesterday we hung the sign despite the rain.
We also used clues from a picture from Dad and Spencer's 2001 trip and after an hour, found their sign which Spencer had hung.
(Wednesday - it two days to get a decent enough signal to post this)
