A Hiking We Will Go.

 Luke and his Boy Scout troop left early this

morning for a ten-mile backpacking hike at

Kimball Scout Reservation.

 A true survivalist, Luke packed all of his

gear, including only a tarp for a tent.  The 

weather was perfect today for the hike,

in the mid fifties in the mountains.  The

night air may be a little nippy in the forties.

 Luke was more than excited to hit the

trail with his troop!!!

Off they go!!!

MIKE UPDATE:  From the very bottom of

our hearts, our family is truly grateful for

prayers that have been spoken on behalf of

our husband and Dad.  We are so thankful

for the support that we have received!!!

Mike entered hospice care in our home

today.  We are so grateful for them and

the care that they have already given him

Mike has rapidly declined over the past

two weeks.  There was a flurry of activity

in our home for many hours today in 

order to receive all that we needed to

care for our Dad right here in our cozy

home.  Thankfully, the oxygen and 

needed medications arrived and Mike

is now resting so much more comfortably

than he has for the past two weeks.  We

pray for God's will and safe travels for

our Tim as he travels home from Ft.

Lauderdale as soon as his ship docks in

port on Monday.

"If He leads you to it . . . He will lead

you through it!!!"
