The Pippins
Bea and Randall, 9/18/99.
I have found that Alaskan's, being so far away from their own families, tend to adopt family members. Randall would have to be my adopted Older Brother. He has gone to my church for years, although I have been their longer. We would go do things on Sundays like Miniature golf, bowling, or watch "R" rated movies that I couldn't watch at home. Last fall when my parents threw me out of the house(well ok, they sold the house and they left too, but it sounds much more pitiful) I moved in with Randall for 5 months. He may not me the easiest person to live with, but I assure you, neither am I. In January 99, I moved into the Smalley's while they where in Juneau, but I continued to eat and watch movies (DVD's) at Randalls. He is truly and excellent human being, more generous than Santa, and a great friend.
