Mt Baker, as seen from our townhouse in Abbotsford, is an active volcano in Washington State.

While going through my photos of the Yukon years, I remembered the time I picked up a hitchhiker along the Alaska Highway in 1985. It was -30 out. We stopped at Lliard Hotsprings. We were the only ones there. We walked over the long boardwalks to the naturally hot water. The hard part was getting undressed and dressed again. The water was perfect. We had to keep immersing our heads, though, as our hair would freeze in about 30 seconds. Sometimes, we would get out of the water, dive into the -30 snow, and back into the hot water. It’s worth the trip if you have some free days in winter.

Lucy was having a rough go of it, so Paul put his arm around her as I comforted them and showed them cool stuff like the view of the freeway from our backyard.

Which one of the three do you identify with today?

May God give you the best week ever!

Rick and Deanna.
