TGIF.....Not!

I think that it is starting to sink in that this magical journey is about to come to an end.  We have seen and done so much in our short time here.  I think that collectively, we're not ready for it to be over.  New friendships have been made, support as been given where needed and we couldn't have had a more wonderful mix of personalities.  These scholars have been awesome!

Before I reminisce about our Friday, I'd like to apologize for the lack of pictures.  I'm working on a Mac and it's like reinventing the wheel for me.  I promise to update pictures once I get back to my familiar PC. Between us all, we have pictures in the thousands and I can't wait for you to see more of them!

Friday was another full day.  The morning started with a hike to Three Lakes which was either 7 or 9 miles depending on which group you were with.  It was a nice, challenging hike that was so beautiful.  We all tried to sneak in a little nap after that one!  All but 4 people went fly fishing in the afternoon.  It was a 4 hour, smile-filled adventure and everyone caught a fish!!  It was "catch and release" so the fish had to put up with minimal disruption.  Several commented that this was one of their favorite activities.   After dinner, Chris showed movies of his Antarctica and Denali adventures.   Lots of great questions followed.

Pictures to be forthcoming...promise!
