I just got back from visiting the old Delta gang in Seattle. While I was there
Jacob and Asenath White came into town, so I got to catch up with them too. How
strange it is that every time I'm in Seattle I always end up running into so
many more people that I hadn't even planned on seeing. It's always so much fun
to catch up with what everyone is doing. I will be coming back home to AK in Feb
and hope to catch up with people while I'm in town. Just thought I would share
the pictures of the group. "Delta Gang" Jacob and Asenath White,

"Delta Girls" are Jessica, Shannon, Myong, and Amber Gephart. Hope
to see everyone soon!
