THE ADVENTURES OF A SENIOR MISSIONARY COUPLE IN ALASKA

This page is to update our activities for our children and grandchildren while we are in Alaska. If you happen onto this page and you don't fall in into the above category -- go ahead and snoop. You might even want to check out Mormon.Org and lds.org to find out what we are doing in Alaska.

THE CARPENTER FROM ANCHORAGE

Jan and I have been watching this deck go up for weeks now. I've never seen a job take so long. I mean - I'm the first to appreciate fine craftsmanship and love to watch a true craftsman at work. But, this is ridiculous. This last Saturday, the guy who is building the deck was there for quite a while. I finally decided to catch some pictures of the "carpenter from Anchorage."

Behold! The Deck!
The owner is sitting in the chair under the umbrella and
the "shy artisan" is behind the umbrella.
Still hiding --
Ah! Finally, he retrieves a tool!
Walking back --
Shazam! It's an escapee from the mid 60's!
You need to magnify the picture and take a look at our
artist. Maybe this explains the long time requirement to
build the perfect deck.
