Dennis and I were back in Palmer with more supplies and stuff to get before scheduling our flight back into the mine. Greg kept texting Dennis to get him to bring beer to the pilot who was bringing fuel to the camp that night. Well Dennis and I were enjoying a nice dinner and had no plans on driving back to Palmer to buy beer for the camp. We bought supplies and flew out to the mine the next night, Friday night. We got there about 10:00 and when I got to the cabin there was a KFC box on the table!!! There is a guy working at the mine that has a plane and him and Paula went for a little ride to get beer and KFC!!! Paula said it was her good buy ride as I am her replacement here at the mine. I got to spend a little time with Paula before she left. Paula is Greg sister, she lives in Iowa and is the mother of two boys. One is just finishing up basic training in Columbia SC and the other is 9. It was really nice to have her at the mine before I came because she had the place organized and clean. We got to spend time looking for foxes and blueberry picking before she left on Sunday. She flew out with the same operator (Meekins)we flew in with the second time. I hesitate putting this next infromation in because I dont want my family to worry but on a very sad note Wild Bill" Michel, 61, died Sunday, Aug. 1, 2010, in an airplane crash at Denali Park.This is the pilot that flew us in the first time we came. We didnt fly in on the plan that crashed but I took pictures of the plane and they are the ones I posted on Facebook. The plane that crashed is the one that was used in the movie Conair. Bill has been flying into this gold mine for 4 years and he was very well liked by everyone. He has been flying since he was a teenage. You just never know when your last encounter with someone may be so I am fortunate to have met him.
