In an Igloo for the first time!

Craziness.  I cannot explain or express why in the world people will intentionally kill or harm others.  However, it is nothing new.  It is happening all over.  In Iraq 30 car bombs went off in 12 different locations killing 30 injuring 300 people.

In Alaska, my children heard and prayed. It was hard to stay focused on anything, while wanting to hear the why's and hows.  Lord, hear our prayers.

After two back to back retreats, James and I headed to the mountains (Mt. Baldy in Eagle River).  I convinced James to get kahtoola microspikes (love them).  We are officially winter hikers.
