Kayaking?!

What a crazy few days. This job just gets better and better all the time! Yesterday after I dropped off my yukon tour in Fraser for them to ride the train back to town, the Packer Kayak guides took me out kayaking in Lake Bernard with a group. it was a great time.

We've had some amazing days the last few weeks. Some ugly rainy ones too, like today, but it hasn't gotten too bad.

Today I'm just doing transfers, which means quick runs in town moving people from place to place. It's pretty mindless. Just pick people up, drive two blocks, drop them off. Easy, and lots of breaks. Good times.

One of our drivers yesterday saved a woman's life. She was going into cardiac arrest, and he took excellent care of her, and arranged for an ambulance to Whitehorse.

On the same day, one of the other drivers left someone behind, and the woman's husband failed to mention she was missing until the poor driver was almost to the end of the famous left behind passenger story. It was such a good story, that there was a play by play description over the radio that one of the other busses listened to. The driver held their mic to the radio to let all their passengers enjoy it. Awesome.
