           Welp, the last three days have been extremely lax compared to the 4 before them.  It’s a pretty good pattern for how the summer will be.  Monday-Thursday are all busy days in which we have several ships in per day.  Friday-Sunday we have a lot less ships and thus a lot less work to do.  I only worked 4 hours on Friday, and none on Saturday and none on Sunday.  Disgruntled with my cancelled tour on Saturday, I marched into Ryan’s (my boss) office and said, “Hey can I ride on a float plane today.”  After making a call, I was granted my wish to take an hour long float plane ride.  We flew over several spectacular glaciers, then we landed on the Taku river and ate smoked salmon at a remote lodge in front of a huge glacier.  Interestingly enough, I shared an airplane with legendary cbs sportscaster Vern Lundquist.  That may mean nothing to you, and it really means nothing to me since I never watch golf, but I will still use it as my claim to fame. 

            Speaking of cleaning sprees, I can’t sit still sometimes and I didn’t work until 3 on Friday, so I cleaned the whole house, changed the oil in our car, paid the electric bill, washed my clothes, bought a shoe wrack and put it together, and went grocery shopping.  It’s weird what happens when you work 13 hours a day for a few days, then only 3 hours the next day.  Anywho, life is good and I have nothing more to say.  Enjoy the pics!

 

ps I didn't have to work today, Sunday, and hopefully Sunday will be my day off for the rest of the summer.

I just realized that I named it screening sprees, that's a weird typo, but now fixed
