We have made It to Camp



Hi All its Ashley!!

After 32 hrs of travel we made it to camp safely. Once making to Alaska we stayed with Ray & Keiko at their AMAZING home! They had beds made for all of us, including three others that joined us that night. Thank Ray & Keiko, you're the best for opening up your home to us Our Saturday started with a wonderful breakfast the The Crossings at Birchwood, then to a very scenic flight on the small plane, WE landed and then began for what some, became the never ending journey. Three boats awaited us and amongst tons of food and luggage we along with about 15 others piled into the boats to head to camp...Again we are all safe and sound!!! So no worries...Only problem was, one boat made it, two broke down and didn't make it to camp along with a lot of our food supplies until later that last night. David D. and Marty C. were the only two that were not on our boat so we were very happy to see them once they arrived. Poor guys were frozen, wet, hungry and exhausted. The boat ride, definitely my least favorite part, was rough, no luxury there at all. So although 6 of us made it in 32 hrs...two didn't until almost the 38th hr. Thanks to all of our families and friends who praying for us. Today has been very busy and BEAUTIFUL....more to come very soon. So we are sending all of our love from KHBC in Alaska. Ashley
