ReplyDeleteErika! WHAT A SMALL WORLD! Yes, I know Sheridan I taught her piano for a few months before she moved to North Pole. Do you know the Wendorf's? They moved up there around the same time that Sheridan did.
ReplyDeleteMatt and Janelle Wilson (Radio announcer in Kodiak now in Kenai) are some of our BEST friends! We just love them and are going up to Alaska this summer to see my husband's family in Fairbanks and visit with the Wilson's in Kenai!
We loved being in Kodiak. We were there from 2004-2008. Great place, gorgeous scenery, safe town. Like a lot of small towns in Alaska :)
I'd love to swap blogs sometime. Thanks for the post and I am looking forward to browsing your blog too!
