Best Coffee on the Alaska Highway

The title may be a bit of an exaggeration, since the StatWife and I haven't stopped at every single café on the Alaska Highway to sample their java. But we've had an abundance of lousy coffee along the Highway on our many car trips Outside. (For non-Yukoners, Outside means anywhere south of our little territory.) So, it is a great pleasure to recommend a spot for its coffee: The Poplars Campground, near Toad River, B.C. The Poplars is found at km 623, just inside the south entrance to Muncho Lake Provincial Park. Here's a map.

If anyone knows of any other places on the Alaska Highway that serve palatable coffee, I'm all ears.

Katrina Relief Blogroll

In the sidebar I've added a list of relief agencies that are working to help those struck by Hurricane Katrina. The blogroll code and a brief description of its rationale are available here. If you have a blog, please consider adding the Relief Roll to your blog.

Tomorrow, Thursday, 1 September has been designated Hurricane Katrina: Blog For Relief Day. StatGuy's family is supporting the Canadian arm of Samaritan's Purse, which is sending supplies and relief workers to the affected area. Please donate the charity of your choice in this time of dire need. This is also a time for prayer.
