Priorities

Anna-

"Whatever we do we cannot leave Tok without buying beer."

Me-

"Oh right... that's a MUST!"


At which point we search Tok for an open liquor store, buy the 6-pack and head out of town...


An hour later Anna says:


"How much gas do we have?"

Me:

"mmmmm, oh, look, the yellow light is on"... the one that warns you are low on gas

Anna:

"Uh, that sign just said 60 miles to the next gas"

Me:

"Shit..."

Our Subaru has a function that tells you how much gas you have left before running out... it said 60...


60 miles later... on fumes we barely make it to a gas station and fill up.


Leave it to Anna and I to go out of our way to make sure we've got beer in the cooler, but to totally forget to get gas on the Alcan highway. A highway that is famous for very long distances between gas stations.

Can you believe they let us take Ella home?
