7/2 Sad leaving Wasilla and heading for Anchorage

It was sad to be leaving, one of the best places we have ever parked at, but it was time to move on. Our mail, from Florida, was being delivered to Anchorage on Tuesday morning and we wanted to be close to it so we could get on the road to Soldotna. We were going to stay at the Army base but while driving to it Dave checked and USPS web site said our mail had been delivered already. We decided to keep driving and just pick up the mail and get back on the road. We parked the RV down by the train station and I walked back up the hill to get the mail.  The line was a  mile long, after waiting for 20 minutes Dave called and was being harassed about being parked where we weren’t suppose to be. He calls me and said he had to leave the spot and would drive back up to where I was, I told him I was still in line. I finally get to the front and they tell me there is no mail there for us and I would need the tracking number. I ran to the RV because the tracking number is in Dave’s email, on his phone. There was no where for us to pull the RV into so we just turned on the emergency lights and Dave ran inside the post office. Once he got someone's attention and gave them the tracking number it turns out it was delivered to the wrong post office and it would show up later today. We decided not drive back to the Army base so we found an RV park in Anchorage to spend the night. We drove into town, walked around and had a great lunch. If you ever get to Anchorage go to Fletchers, at the Captain Cook Hotel, the lunch was great, thanks Linda for the tip. Around 4:30 we went back to the post office and our mail was there. We then did some last minute shopping at Walmart then back to the RV to plan on the next days drive.
We had taken out a pork roast the day before so when we 1st got to the RV park Dave set up the slow cooker for it to cook while we were running around, it came out great. We didn’t eat dinner today until 9:30pm, bed at almost midnight. I think we are starting to get adjusted to not having any night time. It will be tough when we leave this place.
