Filling in the blanks

October 18, 2014

On the ferry home

Actually, at the moment, I am sitting in a comfy chair at our cousin's house in Seattle.  I still limp when getting out of bed in the morning and Shiny is recovering from a virus of some sort.  

We are finished.  We have completed what we set out to accomplish, and now it is time to rest, eat and heal.  It occurred to me that this would be a good time to fill in a few blank spots in the blog.  

Most of you probably noticed a couple of weeks of "dead air" in our communications.  After my last post from Skykomish, we pretty much lost any form of modern communication capability whatsoever.  Cell service...nope.  Internet...somebody spilled coffee on the router in Stehekin.

So, in my next couple of posts, I will attempt to paint a picture of our last two weeks on the trail.

Here are some words that just begin to tell the story.

Delight & Anxiety

Despair & Hope

Pain & Healing

Isolation & Friends

Choices & Answers

Resolve & Triumph

Faith & Gifts
