This morning was our last at Falster Farm. We fed all the animals one last time and I took my last pictures of the place. We managed to get out through the pasture and get my car loaded onto the tow dolly, but not without wrecking the bumper of my car. We’ve been having a heck of a time with our vehicles lately!

In spite of the warmth and the cloudless skies of yesterday, when Mark and I went to bed last night we heard rain on our roof. It rained off and on all night. Mark didn’t sleep well last night so he can testify to that. Continue reading
Last Sunday Mark and I attended both our churches to say goodbye. It’s hard to believe our time in Alaska is nearly over. What have I learned here? Continue reading
I had promised my co-worker, Kay, that I’d cover for her leaving early (her last day was Saturday the 30th) since she covered for me taking an extra day to go to Valdez. However, as I got to talking with Rose about working today, I realized that she is going to be very short-staffed tomorrow (Monday the 1st) so I offered to come in then instead. I had originally thought Mark could just attend his church while I worked today, but since I didn’t have to go to work after all I went with him this morning. Continue reading
Wow! I had quite the response to my request for the words to your favorite hymns! I received words to a number of hymns I don’t think I’ve ever heard before, but the words are wonderful. I’ll try seeing if I can find the hymns on Spotify or YouTube so I can hear the tunes. Thank you to all of you who sent me so many great hymns!
Last Wednesday Mark had an appointment for a massage by a young woman Rose had told us about. The young woman’s name is Amy and her mother is Kris. Kris runs a B&B near Moon Lake, about fifteen miles west of Tok. Mark had a wonderful massage and said that I would get one as soon as I am well. Continue reading
One thing about traveling to new areas is meeting new people. Last night, Friday, Mark and I went out to dinner at Fast Eddies. We got our food and then said grace over it. As we were eating, the man at the next table came over and told us he was glad to see us pray over our food. Continue reading
I’m breaking with tradition and writing about a day before it even happens because I know I’ll be too busy to write tomorrow! Continue reading
When we first started talking with Rose about coming to Tok and working in this RV park, we asked her if she had any 50 amp sites. She said she did, but she wasn’t here when we arrived, so we were put in a 30 amp site. Mark began talking with our boss, Mike, about it and yesterday they found a site they could spare for us. Continue reading
We have a list of churches in Tok and several nearby villages, but the list doesn’t give addresses. It gives phone numbers, so last night Mark called the contact person for the Tok LDS church. They are a house church. Continue reading
