Markymoose in Big Sky

I started this blog in 2009, when my wife, Jackie and my oldest son, Andrew went to Kenya for 5 weeks. I wrote about my life in Big Sky while they were away. I wrote about my trip to Israel with my middle son, Micah in 2010. I wrote intermittently as time passed and then I just stopped. Friends of mine often said, Mark is someone who has to write, but life, work, family, took over. Now I am compelled to write again. My life turned upside down in September 2016 when I was diagnosed with ALS.

The Captain's Seat

The Galesloot family just left

all the way from the Netherlands

another tear jerking goodbye

yesterday we went to Hebgen lake

we rented a pontoon boat

Curly brought his boat too

we had a tube, water skis, a paddle board

I spent the day in the captain’s chair

of the pontoon boat

not in my power chair

I was like Goldilocks trying

out seats on the boat

settling on the captain’s seat

it was a super sunny day

the lake was like glass

there was a rope swing

on the shore

everybody enjoyed

it was an incredible day

now I know I can go boating
