Welcome to Two SOB's, our personal blog where we document our travels, our adventures and other random moments.
Thanks for visiting!
- August 24, 2008Today we left Alaska and made it safely back to Milwaukee. We had a great time and really enjoyed seeing the sights. I think our trip can be summed up with the phrase "planes, trains, and automobiles". We certainly saw a lot of Alaska by all three modes of transportation.On…
August 23, 2008Today was another relaxing day with nothing on the agenda other than to catch the train at 4:45p.m. After all the excitement from earlier in the week, it was a little difficult for me to just sit back and relax. Upon leaving the lodge we headed into the small town…
August 22, 2008Thank goodness we took the flight to Mt McKinley yesterday! Had we not seen it yesterday, I wouldn't have believed that there was a mountain anywhere in the vicinity of our hotel. We had a very grey, dreary day today, as it rained most of the morning. We used our…

When we were getting our rental car, we decided to stick with what I originally reserved, which was an "Economy Car". Looking at the car classification guide at the counter it…- August 17, 2008Hey everyone, it's the sarge here with my first and probably last post. I say last because once I show the wife how to blog I will probably be banned. Anyways, I really didn't want to torture anyone with our everyday lives but some friends of ours started blogging and…
