07/10 to 7/13/19 Tazlina River bridge rest area

Since we had cell service, and a river view, we stayed here for a few days. There was usually a couple of campers and cars throughout the day and night.  The rest area has pit toilets and two shelters with picnic tables. Its not kept up well; one shelter and table are in bad shape. There’s a lot of tall grass and weeds. Not much garbage, which surprised me since there’s no dumpster.

This was a drop-off area for river rafting; it was fun watching them.

One day we watched people repelling from a helicopter

The day before we left, we went to Glennallen, a couple of miles away, to get some groceries.  Typical of a small town, prices are more than usual. But we were really surprised at some of them! Needless to say, we only bought bread and decided we would get groceries once we got to Veldez.

We had 3 bar LTE, no TV.  It was raining off and on, which the state desperately needs.
