Second love of my life

This is my nephew David. David thought it was the funniest thing in the world to sit in the driver's seat. We got such a kick out of him.

Last summer we spent some time with him and his Sister Hayden. We took a family road trip to McCarthy. It was tons of fun, we had a large crowd: My sister Deanna, brother-in-law Scott, brother Aaron, best friend Wendy, Kasey and Me. We did a lot of driving, sight seeing and hiking. We even climbed on a glacier.
Kasey was supervising to make sure he was safe. He had a great time, it was so cute to watch David laugh SO hard. He was very intent on learning what all the button in the hard did, Kasey was a great teacher!

Here is David learning how to blow on dandelions, he was very fascinated with this.











Here we all are after a long hike up to a glacier and BBQ. McCarthy - Kennicott is an old abandoned mining town. We are standing in front of the old mining building. It was very intriguing. The drive to this town is about 8 hours, and lots of dirt roads. The population is very small, something like 50 or less, and you have to park your vehicle and walk into the town on a foot bridge. It was unique and fun. I am glad we have this memory.

  2. It look like you and Kasey and your family had tons of fun in Alaska last summer. Rick and I need to go up there sometime and you need to give us the grand tour. Salmon fishing, sight seeing, the whole nine yards.
