Iskut, BC

Iskut, BC, population 12. Beautiful weather was enjoyed on this, a day off. A group of us decided to put together a quartet (ended up with 9 in our quartet, 3 leads, 2 tenors, 2 baritones and 2 basses), a work up an Alaskan parody to “Let Me Call You Sweetheart” for the Farewell Dinner Banquet in Prince George, BC, next week. We had our first rehearsal at 11:00 a.m.

In that no one in our group had been able to attend GNR (Winnebago’s annual Grand National Rally attended each year by +/- 1,600 units), as we were all in Alaska at the time, our hosts decided to have our own GAR, Grand Alaska Rally. Started at 2:00 p.m., we began with games, Frisbee, Blongo Ball (Snake/Crazy Golf) and Jenga (a giant size version of). We stopped long enough to have a group picture taken then held a seminal where various of us shared tips about our rigs. The hosts then presented information on upcoming Rallies and Caravans. For dinner, we had a baked potato meal with all the fixins, including ice cream sundaes. The festivities ended with a sing-along.
