One of the best parts of our time in Alaska was seeing several of the cities and areas that Bert served at on his mission "a million years ago" he says. In one city, he remarked that there was only one street that was even paved. We found the home where he lived in the basement and the church where he attended, even though it has now been completely redone. I found a Jo-Ann fabric store, which I made him drop me off at while he went to get gas and try to find the church! Living in Japan, the shopping is pretty close to nonexistent! Thank goodness we found a Walmart, too, while we were in Alaska!
This one is for Arycca and Bill! Ok, kids! I believe! 4 years ago when I went to Alaska with 3 of my friends, I did not see this mountain at all! I told Arycca unless I saw it I would not believe it existed.
WOW! Here it is in all of its majesty! 20,320 feet above sea level, rising up from only 1500 feet above the sea! It is majestic and marvelous. So's the great man in the picture!
Alaska Anniversary
Can hardly believe that Bert and I have been married for 2 years now. What adventures we have had!
This is an old school bus we rode for 8 hours through Denali National Park in Alaska two weeks ago. 70 degree weather, blue skies until midnight or later, baby moose, grizzlies, sheep and bald eagles! Amazing place to visit!
