The Alaska Adventure - September 14-21, 2008
(Submitted by P.D.C. Bro. Murray Stewart, Fraser Glen Camp #220)

The trip was the brainchild of Bro. Bill McRae, Worthy Chief of Lord of the Isles Camp #191. Early in the year, he announced that he was organizing a cruise to Alaska for the members of District 19. While I can credit Bro. Bill with the idea, I strongly suspect that Sis. Lynn McRae was more that a little involved in the actual organizing.

In the end there were 12 members and a friend who went on the trip. They were Bro. Ron and Sis. Mary Fix. Bro. Jim and Sis. May Wilson, from Lord of the Isles, Bro, Jim and Sis. Eileen Gram from Lord Tweedsmuir, Sis. Tilda Stewart and myself, Bro. Lee and Sis. Diane Hunseth from Fraser Glen and Sis. Sandy Cuthbert, a friend of Bro. Lee and Sis. Diane. Of course, Bro Bill and Sis. Lynn McRae from Lord of the Isles were there to make our total of 13. May not be a lucky number, we we all had a great time.

Sis. Tilda and I traveled into Vancouver with Bro. Bill and Sis. Lynn McRae by limousine We did this ,not because were ere being extravagant, but because it was cheaper than parking two cars for a week in Vancouver. In any case, it was a great start to a wonderful trip.....
