Kristy, our 3 year old Brittany Ripley and I are heading to Alaska.  (we are also bringing along my in-laws and an eight year old Dachshund named Sabre).

We are embarking on what we expect to be a 12,000 mile road trip over the next three weeks.

If you are interested in following along with the Phillips family on this trip,  I’ve got some links for you.

The goal is to visit three National Parks in Alaska (Denali, Kenai Fjords, and Wrangell-St. Elias),  one in Utah (Arches) and one Canadian National Park in Alberta (Banff).

Now time for some pictures of past National Park entrance signs, kind of a tradition.
