You sound like my uncle.  Unfortunately he died a good while back but he had 
worked 10 years or more in Alaska during the oil pipeline days.  After he 
retired and moved back to NC he decided to go back up there and visit his 
son who had stayed in Alaska.  He bought a brand new GMC van conversion, 
loaded up his wife, his other son, daughter in law and a grandchild.  They 
headed west from NC on the southern route over through AZ and into 
California, then up the coast and on up the Alaskan highway.  They stayed in 
Alaska for a week or so and then headed back across Canada and back into the 
US in Minnisota or somewhere in that area where he stopped in to see an old 
WWII Army buddy.  Then they came on back home.  They were gone 6 weeks and 
put something like 36,000 miles on a brand new van.  Back then that was 
enough to eat up the warranty on it.
