A few more pictures of SLI




Here's three more pictures from Gambell.


The Walk for Life that we organized, mostly young people joined us. WE walked one mile across town, from the school to the church.

A carver friend of ours showing one of the carvings that I bought. Frequently carvers would stop by the church to show us their latest carving and find a buyer. The teacher's housing is probably the other most popular spot to find buyers. Sorry, I don't know how to rotate the picture upwards.

Squeakums enjoying some playtime on the school's new playground. It's a nice one.
And this year roads were put in around the town, for their ATV's. Now you can drive faster, not that it's necessary. Everything is within a mile or so. Before the trails were through gravel which still is what all the side roads are made of. It's a lot faster to walk on the hard road too. NExt year the plan is to cover it with asphalt or something.

I think Squeakums is ready to be called Bearcub - that seems more suitable now that he talks so well. Little sister seems to be the Squeakums now.
The pictures helped us get a better feeling of the island.
Love, Mom
