Rain bound in Talkeetna!

Hi, Rain, Rain, Go Away!!  We have had one sunny day in 7!!! Lucky, that is the day we hiked up toward the Harding Ice Field along side of Exit Glacier.  We had a nice hike, up switchbacks all the way, to a good overlook of the Glacier.  We kept meeting hikers with seeing bears along the trail stories, but we didn't see any!!  We had the bear spray ready just in case.  We went back to Hope, Ak, in the rain, and are now in Talkeetna, in the rain.  Our hope was to get a better glimpse of Denali, as last time it was raining when we were in Talkeetna for 3 days!!!  The forecast does not look promising, rain for the week.  Guess we will start to head east along the Denali Highway if that is the case.  We are sitting outside the Talkeenta Roadhouse using their wifi in the van.  Works.  Will try to upload pictures that wouldn't work last time from Kodiak and others.
Take care, Carol and Ned
