This was fun. Pure fun.

As someone who's dreamed of visiting Alaska and seeing Canada, this was the next best thing a "you are there" experience that allows the reader to vicariously experience author Dorothy Mercer and her husband sidekick's journey in colorful detail.

The author does provide a satisfying amount of detail while keeping her descriptions entertaining, almost as though you're reading an exciting novel instead of another dry travelogue. One favorite scene was when they got stuck in the mud after making a wrong turn, and had to pull out all the stops to dig their way out! I could feel that "gooey" mud clinging to my feet as read her description. Ewww!

They have a few frustrating moments, which they handle with humor and flair, but the main thing I took from his book was that I'd like to be standing outside their house in Michigan begging for a ride next time they embark on one of their great travel adventures!
The intrepid travelers, Dorothy and Dave Mercer, reprise Lucy and Desi Arnaz's roles in THE LONG, LONG TRAILER as they journey from their home in Canadian Lakes, Michigan to Homer, Alaska with "two of every spare part we could possibly need for the truck, tools, tires, hoses, you name it" – but also with what counted the most their unwavering true grit and an irrepressible sense of humor.

Along the way, they brave wrong turns, quicksand mud, sheared tow bar bolts, treacherous roads, and massive amounts of beautiful scenery. I felt I was riding along with Dave and Dorothy, sharing all their good cheer, fun times, and minor stints of bad luck. It was like taking a fun road trip without leaving my computer (and getting stuck in the mud)! The author's plentiful and gorgeous photos wonderfully complimented her lively prose.

Dorothy Mercer turns her fine novelist's eye to making this travelogue a wild ride that you won't soon forget.

I couldn't help wondering at the end When is the sequel coming out?
