Below: The "new yard" of the two RV Gypsies at Rainbow Village RV Park in Denali. The campground had a laundry room and showers but tokens had to be purchased. The two RV Gypsies did not need the campground laundry room or showers. The campground had free Wi-Fi but it was unsecured. Washing vehicles was not allowed. Cable TV provided only 11 channels. The campground is 90 miles from Mt. McKinley which could not be seen from the campground.

Below: Looking out the door of their RV, the two RV Gypsies noticed a very unusual SUN and sky above the mountain. The first photo below was taken at 8:54 p.m. and the last photo was taken at 9:06 P.M. Notice how very different the SUN/clouds/sky look in each photo. The photos are shown in the order taken. An enjoyable 12 minutes. Remember, this is the SUN at night-time, not the moon.

Below The two RV Gypsies drove around the town in their toad and made a wrong turn and drove onto a gravel road in the woods, but it provided for some great photo opportunities.

Below: The two RV Gypsies came upon Iditarod Champion Jeff Kings' Husky Homestead. A young girl came running out as if in a panic and asked if she could help us. We explained we took a wrong turn and she said it was private property but tours were given by reservation and people brought in by bus only. We apologized for intruding and stated that there was not any signs saying "private property" or "no trespassing" so we were not aware of where we were heading. She said there aren't any signs because they don't want to scare people away (yet she was rudely telling the two RV Gypsies to go away). So the two RV Gypsies wondered why she was in such a panic that they were there.......
