Ruby Trewin acting as chairperson for her group, opened with two readings pertaining to Thanksgiving. The group had asked Bruce Taylor to show slides and comment on his and Mrs. Taylor's trip to Alaska in the summer time. So, Ruby asked him to be first, rather than wait until our business was over. The tour consisted of air boat and plane travel for 17 days. Bruce said there were six people from Solina, 22 from Ontario. They boarded the plane for Vancouver, then there was a waiting period period as others were joining them from Seattle. -taste h wAetx Vrln^Z Vi&A'f ht/r* ■(Vaan $4>a<vrc tty BIG FOOT -A 20 piece family feast Cheese pizza $9.99 plus $1.20 per additional item.

There were Paddleboats for excursions, a quaint but large Fish Wheel for catching catching salmon that is still in operation. operation. They went on the Yukon Queen Cruiser to Dawson City from Fairbanks where it's known as the largest mining city in North America. America. One thing Bruce mèn- tioned several times was the difference in the trip for gold miners up the Whitehorse Pass compared to the trip the men took in 1898. They went to the end of Alaska Highway and saw the famous Alaska Pipeline (Oil). Some ore is transported by huge tractor trailers with large round almost like short silos in the top - which up there are called Cup Cakes.

He showed several slides of glaciers and the murky water they create - compared compared to the lovely clear water water of some lakes. The day they saw the peak of Mt.
