Our Roadtrippin’ crew suited up in thermal onesies and a dry suit provided by Glacier Jetski Adventures to explore 60 miles of open water and into Blackstone Bay. The family-owned business was started by Charlie and Rebecca Howard as the first jet ski tour company in Alaska.

I was out at Central Middle School Track running the other day when a cool older guy with sunglasses came at me in the opposite direction dribbling a basketball… The next lap was my last … and he was shooting some hoops by himself on the outside courts, he was moving like he had knees like mine … So, I said, ‘Hey ! Need a rebounder for all those missed shots? “ He turned and looked at me and said, “Well, I guess, you don’t look much faster than me… “ And started laughing… and that’s how I met...

He raised his family here. His children went to West High School. He has 17 children and a lot of grandchildren, but it was Rex’s fun banter as we shot hoops and related about old basketball stars and how much better the NBA was back in ‘the day!’ He’s a recovering guy like me, - we chatted about how our lives are so different and peaceful without distractions and he schooled me on the court.
