The Journey Continues

View from Hope, Alaska, July 2000
We are moving back to Alaska.

Anchorage, Alaska, to be exact. We've dreamed of returning ever since we left there almost ten years ago, soon after Boo was born. Elmendorf AFB was our first three-year assignment in the USAF.
Our family of four on the Alaska Marine Highway, 2002

We never imagined the opportunity would be given to us... we feel kind of like we've won the lottery. After moving several times, each move farther from the Northwest, and each job for E being less and less related to the cockpit, we just didn't think it would happen. But it has.



Here we are now, a family of five, in Southern Florida. That's right, I said Southern Florida!
Wow, we've enjoyed the sunshine, beautiful beaches, and all the flora and fauna Florida has to offer. (More on that later.) Beginning now, we are planning a trek across this great North American continent via the USAF.

From Florida to Alaska!


We hope you join us on the journey.

  3. Joanna and Loida, thanks for commenting! My sweet friends, I am so thankful for both of you. Loida, that song was an old fave of mine too, little did I know that God actually meant to give me such a BIG great adventure! I really had no idea. Good thing he gives the grace when he gives the call. And I don't say that lightly, his grace is sufficient!!!
