3rd Day....Ketchikan, AK

Catherine and Edie decided that they wanted to go see totem poles (to her that is what she thinks of when talking of Alaska. They had a great time

Along with the day, they went to a Lumber Jack show and competition. Looks like fun.....I never

met a tool that I didn't like. Just bought a new

chainsaw for Brady to use while in Utah. Maybe I

should have bought a tubo like they had.

Small town, but lots going on.....Especially when

10,000 people show up from Cuise Lines.

I think there were like 76 Jewelry Shops long main street. All open a 7 am when we got off the ship. Diane and Kim stayed in town and shopped for BLING......Bling they got.

The guys......went for the fish. We had a great time but didn't catch like I did the last time up. Maybe it is because I fished for a week and this was a couple of hours only.

Boat name was "TONZA FUN"

Day 1 of our Alaskan Adventure

Once you get on the plane you really know your on your way. How much more fun could it get. The Behlings had at least a different coat for every day. I was jealous. Need to go shopping

In 1962 my Dad offered the family a trip to the Worlds Fair in Seattle or to spend the money and buy a used boat and stay home. We picked the boat. The family was forever

changed for the good. Catherine's family went that same

year.

Dinner in the Space Needle. It rotated 360 degrees every 42 minutes. Diane got us reservations. We

saw the view in the Sun, Sunset and Evening Lights.

Good Job Diane.

Probably the most expensive Dinner ever..... the experience.....Priceless.... This one is for you Dad. Thanks for the

memories.

Free Breakfast the next morning before we got on the Boat. .....Good thing.

Best traveling partner ever.....Love this Job.

Load...N.....Go.

I think this will work for the next week.

New Project

Our Little piece of heaven is in for a face lift. A contractor made a measurement error and I was able to get a steele of a deal on the mistake. Said I was going out to unload the trusses and the next thing I knew.....I had other willing to go along and help........Thanks a bunch Now.....How do we get these things off the trailer?

Nothing a Jordan and a few tools to get the job done.

Work Smart......Not Hard......right Jordan

I just watched and enjoyed the company.

We got done soooo fast that we were a little sad. Wished the travel trailers were out so we could spend the night. Next couple of trips though. We are having the Curtis Steele family reunion here shortly and are going have a great time. Pictures will

be posted of the great event. ONLY PLAY AND

NO WORK DURING.....I PROMISE

Spring Break???

Got home from a lovely day at the park and later in the day... Started to get some snow flurries....

Not a normal occurrence for Arkansas...

Got up wondering where the road and sidewalks were...

All churches and services were cancelled for the day...

Doesn't seem to want to stop....

Arkansas Trip

We are in Arkansas after what has seemed like a long wait. Always wondering if the new ones will still let you hold them are they are ready to only have Mom. Brady is in Peru....What's new.. We would love to see him but we don't let it stop us from coming to see the kids.

The older they get the more we Love them. Especially when

they are excited to see us.

I have decided like Diane that you always need a picture of the

picture taker.

We spent part of the day at the Park. It was a nice day and had a great time. The kids even found some friends from School as well as their Ward. That is more rare than one might think.

There was quite a crowd. So we had to split up to keep track of the kids

The swing is always a great hit when we come and visit.

It's not Lake Powell....but.....there is sand. Yahoo

Always something to build or a hole to dig.

Conover ( The STUD) #54

We spent this morning at a basektball tournament. Our oldest grandson Conover played the entire game. We had soooo much fun. We are sure proud of him. His #54 is for both Basketball and Football. The Cheering Squad.

Does this guy have a snuggy?
