Everyday isn't vacation

6/12/2018 Fairbanks, Alaska

Just so you don't think every day we're out enjoying ourselves, a little bit of real life does creep in.
Today while Mike was out in Central (that's a town), Alaska doing some prospecting, I spent the day taking an online Defensive Driving course.  I got ticketed for going too slow through the lagging left hand turn at Scottsdale and McDowell back in April.  It was either pay the fine ($335!) and get points or take the class ($225) and no points.  Easy choice.

Fortunately, Mike has a Verizon mi-fi and we've got a great signal, so I had connectivity all day.
It was a good lesson and I'll pay closer attention to driving.  I was *not* on my phone, thank goodness!

On the way out to the spot for prospecting, Mike ran into a bit of white stuff.  He got a bit of gold at a gold prospecting place on the way.

We had an easy dinner and an early night.  The computer was on all evening to get a Windows update.  As I said, real life.
