Miriam's Gymnastics
Miriam's turn to hold the rope.
Miriam's cartwheel improved so much by the end of the camp, it was really wonderful to see. The teacher said she will do a fall gymnastics camp if she can find a facility to use, we are really hoping that works out! In the meantime we are going to make her some mats to use here at home. (-:
Kodiak: An Aerial View
Here are some photos I took of the base and surrounding areas on our hike up Old Woman.
A C-130 taking off from the Kodiak airport.
Our resident 378, the Munroe, as seen from above.
I am very happy Josh is not on this ship!
Hiking 'Old Woman'
(The sign says 'No Motorized Vehicles Allowed')
Miriam's 'I made it!' picture. She is very tired, lol!
The face is priceless, I told her to 'look scared'.
Miriam collecting flowers on the mountain top.
Our little 'hitch-hiker' was a fun ending to our hiking adventure. It was such a beautiful day up on the mountain, a good time was had by all - though the kids were not anxious to go on another hike anytime soon, they were worn out!

Military Museum
Soldier Miriam prepares a report.
We certainly made the most of our time at this gem of a museum right in our backyard and we look forward to our next visit! I am very excited about the opportunity to bring the kids back to look at some of these things as we learn about them in school this year! They even have a little gift shop where they sell actual old grenades, how cool is that! (-=
