Snow machines
We have friends who have a large farm in Alaska. Tison was invited to come down and ride machines with their son. Here is a boy born in Indonesia and now very much a part of life in the arctic.
We arrived with plenty of daylight on a beautiful sunny day. It was a little cool but the sun was bright and Tison was more than ready to get on the snow machine and have some fun. He got his winter clothes on and we hardly saw them again. They were just having a great time riding and enjoying the amazing winter day. Tison was having so much fun he forgot to come in to eat lunch.
He is making memories here in the Great Northland. He will be going back to his home in a couple months. He will be under the hot tropical sun and the snow and chill will be only in his stories to his friends. He has told us he loves living here–everyone likes him and he really feels good about himself. He misses his family and will be happy to see them–but he will have a place in his memories for Alaska.
