I have so much catching up to do. It has definitely been an eventful summer! With Bernie's motorcycle accident and on-going recovery to Angie's first trip to AK we have been busy. We had a wonderful visit with Angie and she even had the opportunity to work at Camp Carlquist! God is so good!!

Bernie Sr. always has a project going from pouring concrete sidewalks and steps to designing a two-fold garden/retaining wall along the house. We removed one flower garden yesterday and will plant one this week. The railing got built up to the apt. and the trim made it up onto all the windows. He has started the porch covering to keep the snow off of the deck.

Work is on-going for both of us although we did manage a few camping trips to Seward, Kenai, and even King River for blueberry picking. We have a producing garden with all the rainy weather and just planted some raspberry bushes. We do miss the sunshine though and hope and pray for it to shine before the summer is really over.
