Blast from the Past- Off I Go! May 2nd, 2008

Off I go! After a particularly eventful year (rehab, mental hospital, medications, remaking friends, unalienating family memalaska2-7663351bers, trying to figure out what to do instead of getting hammered) I get on the plane to go to Alaska tomorrow. I’ll be working in a family owned fishing lodge on the Kenai peninsula. It’ll be the first time I’ve worked in 10 months.
I’m really looking forward to getting back in the kitchen, and this is a really easy re-intro. As I will only be responsible for dinner service for twelve people (as well as purchasing and managing my enormous staff of 2 people) I’ll be spending as much time as possible doing Alaskan outdoor stuff ( hunting, fishing, rafting, kayaking, hiking) as I can. Fall Bear season isn’t till September and we have no bookings for the spring season, so I can get my sea legs a little before I have to boss a camp. Time to practice with that .454 Ruger!
I’m taking both a still and video camera, and will be documenting my experience as I go. Stop on by every once in a while and see if I’ve been et or not. My next post will be from the 49th. state!
