Hey Carrie...

Some of us come to Alaska for all the right reasons!

Mia and kids and my family all went out to the Shrine of St. Therese and Eagle Beach. It was a lovely day and the rain (misty stuff at that) didn't start until well after our picnic was over and we were ready to go home.

Oh, and while we're on the subject of hubba hubba man....one of my friends Sara, who's my cousin because her father is the brother of my mother's sister's husband, was out visiting her family in another town and ran into the Ford/Flockhart brood celebrating the fourth. Everything went well until someone asked for his picture and then everyone started to flock and they had to leave. Can I just say that sometimes it's nice to go where nobody knows your name?
