Shopping for pumps


Sept 29, 2013

The miners went around Anchorage all day checking on pump and seeing where they could get hoses.  They started at 6:00 AM.  Remember Dave is from Florida and usually gets up at 3:00 AM, so 6 o’clock Alaska time, is like 10:00 AM for him. Dave insisted on going to Lowe’s and George kept telling him it wouldn’t be open.  Well, George’s little wifey was right… just like home.  They went to the CAT place and picked up some supplies and took them to Alaska Air Transit. 

They guys picked up their old pilot, Ken, from the airport and spent a little time with him.  Remember he is their first pilot that had to make an emergency landing on a river last year 3 miles from a village.  George said his plane was up and flying now.  They had a good time seeing him again.
