A message from Rhonda:
"Hi Joe,
Ron called today about 1:00 p.m. and gave me another update:
They were boarding the ferry Taku headed from Petersburg to Ketchikan. Yesterday was a very fun and exciting day. The guys hiked to a beautiful lake and caught about 15 cutthroat trout. They also took jet boats out to the LeConte glacier, which is 21 miles long and one mile high! It's the southern most advancing glacier. They watched a huge piece of ice break off and crash into the ocean. It caused gigantic waves!! They saw beautiful blue and gray colors on the glacier and it looked surreal. Ron said there were fur seals and sea lions on the iceberg. Some of the guys helped with a boy scout service project through the City and Parks Dept. in Petersburg. They installed rubber covering for a playground. I don't know how they had time to do all of these things in one day, but apparently it was a wonderful and exciting day. Captain Smith reports that the boys are doing great and all is well! Until next time.................. Rhonda"
