This is Linda writing tonight and we really didn't do a lot today. That's probably because yesterday was so full. It was really special to go to the Arctic Circle, walk on the tundra and touch the pipeline. The driver was extremely well-informed and interesting. All the special things they had to do with the pipeline were especially interesting. It took a lot of engineering to take 185 degree product out of the ground and move it thousands of miles without disturbing the environment, especially the perma frost. The perma frost is extremely interesting also.

Well, this morning we got a late start since we got to bed late last night. We went to Wal-Mart and went to see where we were going to go on a river boat ride this afternoon. Then we decided we really didn't want to go on the riverboat ride so we canceled it and went to deliver the Sterzing's potatoe chips. Of course we had to visit while we were there. We had planned to spend the night there, but the accomodations weren't what we expected so we decided to return to Fairbanks for the night. Of course there is construction involved and Sally doesn't know about it, so she was a hindrance to us. We decided to forget her. By the way, Sally is Phyllis's GPS system. Sometimes she is quite helpful and at other times she is a hindrance.

So today has mostly been a day of rest. We have reservations for the next two nights, and tomorrow night we have no internet, so don't expect a blog again until Saturday. Also, Ila has contracted a cold, so feel free to pray for her. Have a nice day!
