Alaska Journey Day 61 / by Dave Hileman

One Moose Day

Church this morning was at Kenai Christian where the Trustys served at one time. They have planted a church in New Zealand and Waypoint was part of their sponsor network. Neat. We explored the road north to the end. Nothing spectacular, talked to “set net” fisherman and a traditional angler but did not get stuck in sand. We saw one moose trotting (do moose trot?) on the highway. The most interesting thing was a family gathering during low tide in Captain Cook State Park where most of the kids were playing, sliding, slathering and throwing tidal mud. They were having a ball. Amazing. We have noted that the kids here still get to do things that would get parents in trouble in the L-48.

Cadillac’s Most Correct Viewpoint

Well, word came today from BdB who will join us in a day or so. He reports that the fields of shirts come from China and Vietnam and India. He said they float to the US in giant metal boxes. I’m pretty sure he did not get much of this right. First, I never heard of Vietnam, China is who made my dishes and India, we were near Indians in some states and did not see any shirt fields. He traveled to Asia - where is that, maybe near Oz:) - and had to learn Mandarin which, he told me, took two days. To talk about an ORANGE! I think BdB needs a good long rest in a nice quiet place. Clearly he is not well. Now I need to take care of him, still find out about shirts and get Moose Rights back on the track. I need minions and a girl friend. I did talk to a Moose today, he was in a hurry but still impressed.
