But Marsye took Sue by the hand and set her down. And said there no quiting in this town.

Sue and her hubby had moved to Alaska as they heard about the gold mining and Sue has been making lovely quilts. She thought this would be a good opportunity that hubby could mine for gold while she made quilts for the ladies in town.

Sue is outside playing with daugther "Emma" and son "Peter".
Sue has been so busy now that the children are getting older and washing more clothes.

The kids are old enough now that they help mommy in the garden. They love this property as it has a creek, apple trees and lots of hills.

Sue kicked off her shoes, stepped into the creek laughing and playing with her children. Waiting until she can grasp them by the hand leading them to the dry land. It was time to go home. She would not leave them their alone.

The kids cried and cried on the way back to the house as they were having fun in the creek. Peter had seen something jumping around in the creek and was trying to figure out what it was.

Sue explained to Peter that it was a frog swimming around with the fish.

Poor little Peter wanted to go back to the creek to see if he could find the frog but Sue said no you are going to get cleaned up as you are muddy and wet. Peter cried and went to bed.
