Here are some photos from our last day.
We were able to do a 2-hour sail on Monday 3/16.
It was a “whale watch”, and we did see whales! (Lots of whales!!!)
The return flight was good… better than than the flight to Hawaii. We were able to sleep most of the way home, as it was a “red eye” flight. Now the challenge will be to acclimate to the time change, and resume daily life and schedules.
Jessica was very happy to see us, and we took her out to Chili’s for dinner. Chili’s is one of Jessica’s favorite places to eat out.
The video photographer in the photos below, recorded our adventure on the boat. We will get a DVD of the sail along with additional footage of whales and their life between Hawaii and Alaska and how they live their lives. The whales typically live about the same life span as us… 65-80+ years.
I am looking forward to seeing the DVD.
It was great to have this special time away, and we are very thankful for the help and care we received for Jessica, in our absence.
Thanks to…. Bethany, Danielle, Tami, Carla, Jodie, Scott & others… we were able to do this trip.
This trip was in honor of our 31st anniversary, that we’ll celebrate this coming August.
In addition to being thankful that we had a great vacation and that we returned safely to Jessica; I am glad to be back in the daily routine of life.
Thanks be to our great GOD and Savior, the LORD Jesus Christ!
For, “He is the Creator & Sustainer” of all living things…and is returning for those who know Him, and are awaiting His appearing.

Here is a passage from Titus 2 that I have been thinking about, and relates to our Lord Jesus’ return.
For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men, instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds. Titus 2:11-14 (NAS)
“Maranatha, come, LORD Jesus, come!”
