Roadhouse provides a rest along the trail
|
|
|
|
Sitting in the shade of a poplar, I watch the Tanana River flow by. It's flat and tan, dimpled by eddies and darted over by swallows that sound like they are chewing rubber bands. I slept last night with my wife, daughter and dog in the upstairs of a handsome, two-story log structure that has stood since before World War I. Judy Hicks, who lives here in Delta Junction and works for 乐虎直播 State Parks, invited us to stay at Rika's Roadhouse.
