Fog-gistics

I love waking up early in the morning and getting out to the plane, just to have it loaded and not go anywhere for 3 hours because there is fog so thick you can't see 30 feet in front of you. Just when we get things running smoothly, fog shuts us right down.

Another thing I don't really enjoy about Rankin, stereotypes of aborginal peoples just being proven true over and over again. It's a dry community, but they still manage to get their hands on booze quite a bit. It's difficult to get anything done without being overly persistent. Sometimes they just take off and don't finish doing what they're being paid to...it's frustrating.

But on the other hand, they are very friendly, and always smiling. Even if they're seething and probaly pissed off because you interrupted their morning coffee. Ah well. I'll be out of here tomorrow, and back to camp.

Should be nice.
