Remembering Pearl Harbor

Nine hours after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor they attacked American Bases in the Philippines. Japanese pilots expected fierce fighting when they cleared the mountains north of Manila with their sights on Clark Air Field.

Instead, they found U.S. B-17 bombers and P-40 fighter planes lined up on the runway like knives in a box. American flight crews were eating lunch.

Less than an hour later, nearly half of the U.S. Air Forces in the Far East were destroyed.

Journey to the Top of the World

I'd love you to meet Mountain Climber Kay LeClaire. I got to know Kay while writing a book about how she came to be scaling Mount Everest at age 60!

If you're in the Spokane area stop by with the kids and learn all about what it takes to climb the world's highest peak. Kay will be explaining her gear, showing photos and tell great stories about her climbs.

JOURNEY TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD is the amazing story of one woman's courage and determination to overcome fear, poor teamwork, injury and life-threatening storms to become the oldest American woman* to climb the Seven Summits, the highest mountain on each of the seven continents. It's a great gift for someone on your Christmas list who needs a little inspiration.
