I also agree with Quilter 53--I live in Kenai, Alaska--have lived in Juneau and Anchorage and The Milepost is a must. Pretty much tells you what to expect from mile to mile. The train is great but very slow--sometimes you think you could walk faster--LOL. Most of the towns/cities have fabric shops with Alaska themed fabric. Kenai Fabrics certainly has a lot. Fairbanks is a great place to start and it has quite a few great tourist attractions. Another thing to remember is that Alaska has a lot of 2-lane highways and it can be hard to find places to pass the slow traffic--the highest speed in a lot of areas is 55MPH. Bring lots of patience with you.
