God I love that place. We just screwed around and lost track of time with a sun that never really set. We drank beer and made a fire that was an affront to God himself it was so big. A nice 'break' from dipnetting. I know I don't have many evenings left before I start working every night on my murder trial. Doing a trial in the summer is hard. Especially this summer, which has been one of the nicest ever. &lt;em&gt;Ever&lt;/em&gt;. I had a weird thought this morning. I was actually looking forward to the dark. -30. Because then I will go to bed before 1 am and sleep and sleep. On Friday the Kenai river opens for dipnetting and that will start a frenzy of fish catching, cleaning, smoking and canning. I am already getting tired.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pkjPlk6IzgM/SlWlUKdlyXI/AAAAAAAACLg/2Zzgn6OsqnE/s1600-h/tust2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 240px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356369097651505522" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pkjPlk6IzgM/SlWlUKdlyXI/AAAAAAAACLg/2Zzgn6OsqnE/s320/tust2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pkjPlk6IzgM/SlWlED1AOYI/AAAAAAAACLY/uZkY1CfPbSI/s1600-h/IMG_1605.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356368820992752002" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pkjPlk6IzgM/SlWlED1AOYI/AAAAAAAACLY/uZkY1CfPbSI/s320/IMG_1605.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16851918-6115876428454706963?l=fairbanksorbust.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairbanksorbust.blogspot.com/feeds/6115876428454706963/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16851918&amp;postID=6115876428454706963' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16851918/posts/default/6115876428454706963'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16851918/posts/default/6115876428454706963'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairbanksorbust.blogspot.com/2009/07/so-it-was-about-75-degrees-when-we-left.html' title=''/><author><name>A Public Defender's Life in Alaska</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14563234157756819679</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16989714511196623620'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pkjPlk6IzgM/SlWlp2EPAgI/AAAAAAAACLo/mlniQsFjnUI/s72-c/tust3.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>4</thr:total></entry>
