Just thought I would add some pictures of our trip to Skagway, Alaska we took this summer. Mel and my Dad and I went and we had a great time. We were able to go on a Helicopter ride to the Meade Glacier and walk around on the glacier. That was pretty awesome! The scenery was incredible! We also went on a train ride up a mountain called White Pass that was built during the Gold Rush. It was so high and so steep...it was kinda scary! The whole mountainside is shale and could come crashing down at anytime....at least that's what it felt like. I wish we had more time. It was a fast and busy trip....we'll have to go again next year! Next time we want to go on Helicopter tour to the sled dogs! The weather was too crummy for us to do this time.

So I came across this blog reading a friends blog and I just had to share this story with my friends. These two blogs I have added (the links are at the top of my blog and I've added them below) are two sisters. One is names Stephanie (nie nie as everyone refers to her by) and Courtney (c jane) . Stephanie and her husband were in a small airplane crash about a month ago and are currently recovering in an Arizona hospital from critical burns to most of their bodies. Courtney, Stephanies sister, keeps her blog updated on their recovery. The story is so inspiring and yet sometimes so hard to read. Their faith is so strong that I am amazed everytime I read it. Check out the links if you'd like to read their story.
