Kevin and Beth came to visit for a couple of days.
They flew up on Wednesday with a dreaded 9 hour
layover in Juneau. This would have got them here at 11pm.
Pete looked into our local small plane company who informed
him they just happened to have a plane in Juneau. Within an
hour they were on a flight with just the pilot and them to Sitka.
The skies were clear wintery blue and the mountains capped with snow.
They arrived at 3pm and shaved 8 hours off the layover.

We ate some good food, went on walks, read at the library
stared at the kids, chopped wood -and toe-, faced our addiction
to sugar and then said good bye. As always, the time is not long enough.
