Celebrating the 4th

We had an awesome time with our friends, Mike and Cayla Boettcher and their 3 little kids this weekend. They took us Anchorage and the volcanoes across the water but unfortunatly it was cool and rainy, again. We rode 4 miles up the rocky shore dodging many large boulders until we found a good spot to make a beach fire. Hot dogs and smores were our late lunch. After lunch we climbed up to the little house attached to a rock and use the outhouse. The kids had tons of fun digging in the rocks and finding really interesting ones. Back at the house for supper we fried Alaskan Halibut! Yum!
Sunday we drove back from Kenai (almost 2 hours) to lead our second night of FPU class and meet the work crew for the week. They don't do fireworks up here- no darkness to do it in.
