Dan and Sandy – Back to the Lower-48

We talk about our incredible experience in Haines, Alaska when we saw the Northern Lights.  Our trip from Haines to Skagway on the Ferry.  We experienced the Yukon Suspension Bridge and the Carcross Desert as we made our way down to Vancouver before crossing back into the United States.

Once we got into Washington, we still had a few more adventures with Alex and Cooper before they split off to make their way back to Pennsylvania.  We explored both Olympic and Mount Rainier National Parks before splitting off on separate routes back east.

Episode #300 – Dan, Sandy, and Alex – A Summer to Remember

Episode #300 – What a milestone!

It’s crazy to think that I have released 300 episodes of this podcast.  The people I’ve met, the places and things that we’ve spoken about have been amazing.  It’s truly been an honor to share the stories of so many incredible people as well as taking you all along for the ride as Sandy and I continue this incredible journey.

I wanted this to be a special episode, so I got both Sandy and our grandson, Alex to sit down and have a casual conversation about some of the highlights of our amazing Canadian and Alaskan adventure over the past three months.

Alex Croft – A Journey of Independence

In this episode of “The Journey of My Mother’s Son” podcast, I sit down and talk to my grandson, Alex Croft.

This is the second time that I have had Alex on my podcast.  The first was two years ago between his Junior and Senior year of high school.  The first episode, we recorded in his backyard in Pennsylvania.  This episode, we recorded in our RV while we were staying in Homer, Alaska.

Back in May, Alex, with just his 7-month-old Jack Russell mix puppy, Cooper, by his side, embarked on a journey of independence.  They drove from Myerstown, Pennsylvania to Great Falls, Montana to meet our group that was traveling throughout Alaska and Canada this summer.
