Final Farewells

[dmsparks]

It has been an exciting and exhausting 8 days. We spent our final day at the Chena Hot Springs Resort near Fairbanks. People come from all over the world to feel its soothing (and hot!) waters. It runs about 110F. I tried it but I could only stay in for about 30 minutes total. It drains you but it feels SOO good. They treated us to a farewell dinner of prime rib, salmon, and cheesecake. We thanked all our leaders and headed back to Fairbanks. The long hours of flights back home await me, but I am ready to get back to Texas and see my family. Check back in a few days and you can see a group picture. Thanks for following me on this wonderful journey North.
