Family Outing



Connected by MOTOBLUR™ on T-Mobile


After work on Tuesday we took a little trip up to the sea town of Whittier Alaska about 60miles away. To get there if go go through the longest tunnel in North America of 13,000 ft long. The tiny town is located on the Prince William Sound surrounded by Mountains. We had an excellent supper of fresh halibut! Before going home we tackled a short (0.8 mile) hike to Byron glacier to play in the snow. It was really cool- literally and figuratively! Timmy thought it was great fun to throw rocks in the icy waters from the melting snowfields and glaciers up in the mountains.
The halfway point of being gone this summer comes on Thursday for the boys and I. We left six weeks ago and our plane brings us home August 26. Nathan will be driving home a week or two after us with his brother Abe. The time is going fast and it's beautiful and awesome up here but we have been a little homesick.
