WASILLA ALASKA MIGHT SOUND FAMILIAR AS IT IS THE HOMETOWN OF SARA PALIN
This morning we all attended services at the Wasilla First Presbyterian Church which is only a short drive from the Fox Run RV Park in Palmer. There we experienced yet another example of just how small our world is. When Pastor Rev. Henry H. Woodall introduced himself he asked the classic question "Where are you from?" When we told him Virginia, he said he attended seminary in Richmond and pastored a church in Stuarts draft for 14 years. Well, Stuarts Draft is located only about 1/2 hour from our home in Churchville; we're over 5,000 miles from home and met someone who used to be practicably a neighbor. The folks at first Presbyterian we very warm and friendly and we were very impressed by their enthusiastic young people. After lunch we explored the Wasilla/Palmer area where it seems everywhere you look is another specticlar view. It was a beautiful day with sunshine and no rain or wind and it was easy to see that Alaskans are outdoor people because everyone was out enjoying the day. |
