What a day
Got up around 6:15 am and sat at the table having coffee watching the sunrise. Had breakfast and then did some work around the cabin. About 12:30pm, grabbed my sled and walked to the village to pick up a package. While there, I stopped at the clinic which is also the gathering spot to sit and chat with people. Hung out and had a good time BSing with the guys there. Then I loaded up my sled and started walking back to the cabin it's about 4 or 5 mile round trip. I wished I had remembered to bring my camera. As I got onto the lake, there was a supercub landing about 60 feet from me. It was someone from the village. Where else can you walk on a frozen lake and have a plane land next to ya? I love my life out in the "BUSH" wouldn't live anywhere or any way else. More tomorrow.

AZ shooting
A very sad tragedy that should never have happened. So sad that so many has to suffer. For those who innocently paid the ultimate price....R.I.P. and those who were wounded....A speedy and full recovery.

Robert Service
"The only society I like," he once said, "is that which is rough and tough - and the tougher the better. That's where you get down to bedrock and meet human people." He found that kind of society in the Yukon gold rush, and he immortalized it.
Joe Maxey R.I.P.
Joe owned Painter Creek Lodge on the Alaska Peninsula where I was his winter caretaker. He passed away from an airplane crash. This was the last time I saw him.
