Cruising Alaska
« on: July 20, 2004, 05:41:23 PM »
Well to all you NEF fans that live in Alaska, I'm visiting your beautiful state.  Wife and I are celebrating our 30th and took a Princess cruise from Whitier to Vancouver.  We are docked in Skagway right now and will go to Jeneau (sp?) tomorrow, then to Ketchikan.  I REALLY envy you guys that live here for is is the mosy beautiful place I have ever seen :eek: .  A true sportmans paradise too.

So I am NOT shooting for a while, cruise ships frown on bring guns on board, even single shots :grin:

So I'll be back home Sunday, but will turn around Tuesday to go to Ohio cause my mom is recovering from cancer sugery (confirmed she has it) and foung out my dads cancer has grown. :cry: , sometimes life kicks us in the teeth when we least expect it.

Will check on you all later, please pray for my mom to recover from the sugery and strength for me and my siblings.

Handirifle - I too will be remembering you and your parents in my conversations with The Lord. Here is something from His word that may be comforting for you.

1 Thessalonians 5:18.  In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Good words to remember, thanks.  Sometimes it's easy to forget that part.  It's easy to say when all is good but adversity causes memory lapses.

Thanks to all for your prayers.

Will do.

Thanks every little bit helps.  Wife and I had a great day in Kechikan, very hot weather for here though, 79-80 degrees.

Will look in again in a day or two.

Thanks to all for your prayers and thoughts.  I'm home now, but headed out Tuesday AM for Ohio.  Mom is home and doing well so far.  Prayer make a difference. :grin:

BTW the cruise was wonderful and I'm convinced your prayers help me continue to enjoy it.
