Our 7th-grader Kaden has fallen in love with football this year.

The month of September has seen Kim dealing with some unusual critter situations.

Our oldest grandchild Karter is now a high school freshman (UNBELIEVABLE!).

We are in the middle of cider season here on the Gray compound.

Being grandparents is one of the greatest of God's blessings for Kim and me.

Our 5-year-old grandson Koda played flag football for the first time.

As I close out my posts on our amazing Alaska adventure, I have a few more images to share that aren't grizzlies at all.

Our last day in Alaska's Katmai National Park began in the fog.

After a couple of days exploring Kukak Bay, Captain John navigated the Ursus to the larger, less protected Hallo Bay on the edge of Katmai National Park.

Nothing really prepared us for the heart-stopping thrill of seeing our first grizzlies in Katmai.
