The Alpha

One who gently touched my face has captured my heart...

Forever I have dreamed of one whose soul would embrace mine with a simple glance. With his eyes piercing mine we communicate without a single word. Somehow he cupped his love and poured it into my soul. Filling me, making my heart feel whole. I felt a love that I had never known before... I have always known how to love another; I have even felt my own heart rip because my love could not fit inside my tiny heart. But for the first time I have felt another love me the way I have learned to love.

He put his hand gently on my cheek lifting my chin and with an ever so tender manner he placed his lips on mine and kissed me with a kiss that caused my world to change forever. For my heart quivered and a perfect tear fell from mine eye. I dreamed a dream once and it came true...


After a long night of hiking the Olympic Mountain Range look what we found! We did a 7 mile hike in search of a great waterfall, and to our surprise a road - at the top of the mountain! It lead us to an old abandond hot spring "spa" that the USFS shut down. We made a night of it and soaked away. A nice warm bath to get us ready for our 7 mile hike back. We didn't see a single soul the entire hike. It was wonderful just the two of us.

A 7 mile hike? What the crap!?!?! You couldn't find a horse or motorcycle for crying out loud?? It does look like a beautiful getaway-wish we could have done it with you on or in some sort of transportation of course. We dearly love and miss you!!!

I loved hearing all of these details and seeing the photos. I think Tim and I need to start a blog--seems like we might be one of the last ones left who haven't yet! Hopefully soon...
