Last days in Nome 2009


Our week went fast and we had it filled each day with adventures we would talk about for years. We visited the museum in Nome and saw a stuffed Fritz; we went past the Arctic Circle, rode 4 wheelers up the mountains 1500-2000 feet and back down, and we saw lots of wildlife including a grizzly. We were all in awe of the beauty of Alaska. We came home with a little gold and a whole lot of memories. The picture shows George concentrating and checking his sleuce for just a show of gold. Believe me when I say, just the site of the beautiful yellow stuff makes guys drool. Although Dave is from Florida and George from Kansas their friendship grew strong. The two bonded and became the best of friends. Who would have known this trip would be the catalyst to launch George and Dave’s adventures into the wilds of Alaska living out their dream.
