Carol, we had some great times in Alaska with our kids! I remember the first time your boys(1 yrs old) had ever been away from you as they cried for you the whole time you were gone moving to a new house in Anchorage! I'm sure there are just as many tears now. We will all miss your smiling face. You helped us out in a difficult time and I appreciate that to this day!
