B.J. and I spent an emotional, but good week in Juneau the last week of June. In spite of vandalism to the memorial site, we were able to rebuild and finish all the work except for the permanent bench, which will be custom made for us by master woodworker Robert Fletcher. Nikki, B.J. and I have decided upon a plaque, which will be ordered for installation with the bench.
The weather was beautiful the week we were there (although the horseflies were horrible), which allowed us to get all of the concrete work done without a problem other than exhaustion and sore muscles. We were fortunate enough to have the help (and muscles) of good friend Christy Leer and nephew Keith. Equally exciting was a visit to the site by kayakers and friend Paula McMeen as we were finishing up. Pictures and a short video will follow this post, but in the meantime a quick pic of B.J. hard at work is attached.
We encourage all who are able; please visit the site, enjoy the beauty and reflect on whatever is on your heart.
