This is what we were doing this time last year:

Last Friday, when we were headed to Yakima for the state basketball tournament, we saw a convey of military vehicles crossing Snoqualmie Pass.  It was cold and snowy on the pass…probably 28 degrees…with some serious wind blowing the snow all around.  It was an ugly drive.  We saw this convey…and in each vehicle there was at least one soldier STANDING in the truck bed, facing into the wind as they drove along.  They were bundled up, but they looked absolutely frozen.  Even now, the thought brings tears to my eyes:  young men and women willing to sacrifice everything for our country.  We are blessed indeed.  Thank you for your service!
