Tomorrow is the first day guests will be arriving at the lodge and I found out via satellite phone this morning that, due to some people at the lodge still waiting on new Coast Guard licenses, I'll be heading back to help out for the first day then flying back out to the river with guests the next. When Dan showed up to get me I was surprised to see Eric from the Birch Creek camp in the co pilot seat of the Beaver. Actually there wasn't a seat, it was removed to fit some fancy tent doors so Eric is sitting on the floor with Stella, his Mini Australian Shepherd.
