DRIVING TO ALASKA?... TAKE D'ARCY WITH YOU

This is a true story. 

TRAVELS WITH D’ARCY “To Alaska and Back” serves as a classic reminder there’s a state in our union as beautiful as God, and as American as scrimshaw carvings. It’s legend. And it’s far away, but you can drive there via the Alcan Highway through the Yukon. This journey offers a unique glimpse of our 49th State’s future by examining its past. This 8,599-mile trip to ‘Alaska State Park’ from Summerland, California is a splendid odyssey, revealing a land both brazen and breathtaking, where glaciers carve mountains out of stone and the wind howls voices spirited from the past.

D’Arcy and I went in search of the Alaskan creed. The creed is the unspoken law of the land, where choices are made in silence and only judged by your conscience. Do you stop for the man in the broken-down RV, or do you keep on driving? What if it’s a woman? What if it’s a band of Tlingit Indians? What if it’s a dog running to its master with an arm in its mouth, covered with red flannel? Do you call the police or keep on trucking? These are the choices people make according to their creed. It’s not the words that define you; it’s the actions you take when no one is looking.
