Hello From Alaska or Enjoying the Beautiful Cool Summer

Hello out there in Blogger Land..
Update:
We left Florida at the end of March to spend the spring/summer in Palmer at our stick house. Left our R.V. in Bradenton, Florida.
The kids really enjoyed the two weeks of winter and playing in the snow before it melted...
Hanna, Jake and I helped out my friend Nancy at the I.D.E.A. homeschool fair at the end of April. She has {Learning Essentials} an educational store in Wasilla, AK. Always fun to see what new stuff there is out there..
We have really been enjoying and appreciating our near 4000 sq. ft. of living space.. the kids said " WOW look at all the space!" when we walked in our house after being in the 32ft C-class for the winter.
We have gone biking in Anchorage on the trails, very fun.. but not as much as I thought we would. We are going to definitely buy some bikes for the RV.
We sold our 30 ft. Jayco trailer we had here in Palmer.. I just don't feel like camping (I wonder why?!) So we are focusing on fun around the Valley and Anchorage or flying to Homer or Seward in David's 180 plane...
We are mostly hanging out around home.. It's soooo nice to be home... we are Loving! it..
I asked the kids if they want to go to The Grand Canyon, and they think it would be a fun trip...so we are looking in to it.. my Dad might meet us there... fun :+)
David is working on his Instument Rating this summer hoping to get it done before we head out for Florida this fall, but he says it is taking a lot longer than he figured..
I am hoping to get our schedule fine tuned but it's so far ahead, it's hard to think about..;^)
More to Come...
