Interesting week

So, I've had one of the most interesting weeks of my life. What
happened? I'm glad you asked.

My week started with a trip to the arctic circle, as you'll see in the
photo, where we went up to Coldfoot, AK and camped for the night. The
haul road is less than in good condition compared to the rest of the
highways in the US, but that's where part of the fun is. Dodging
potholes and trucks as they go speeding through the interior. The
country north of Fairbanks is quite unique to Alaska and it was full of
photo opportunities.

After we returned I had a day to relax and then I jumped on a plane to
go to Homer to the district Pastoral conference to promote my mission
trip to PNG... It wasn't what I expected, but it was very informative
and interesting to meet several pastors from Alaska and get to know them
over three days.

While in Homer there was a house we visited that had a Bald Eagle land
in a tree just outside the best window in the house... How often does
that happen? It was getting attacked by another bird, but gave an
awesome chance for photos.

After we flew back to Fairbanks (oh, I flew copilot both down and back,
well worth it) I met up with Kat and we went to Ignite Alaska, which is
a concert full of Christian bands... I've been taking lots of photos of
it, but right now I get to go meet up with another guy to talk about PNG
some more... then it's back to the concert...

Like I said... interesting week.
