February/March 2022: The amazement of watching winter turn in to spring as we get to serve God and people! Photojournaled below: driving to Palmer for an Alaska Freedom Journey training module, flying to Grayling for a 2-week visit (first 7 days in quarantine), and having fun at the Ice Park in Fairbanks – check out […]
[Epilogue: About a week and a half later, James took a commercial flight to Manley and flew the plane home. Jim had swept off the snow and plugged in the heat so it was ready for a quick turnaround. It is such a blessing to be part of the Body of Christ!]

Due a trip to the lower 48 and the timing of airplane maintenance that discovered damage that needed to be repaired, we had not visited the Grayling house for 5 months.
