: A Public Defender's Life in Alaska

So, I decided to take the new interns out to sea test the boat. Did it run perfectly? No. A problem with the batteries or the starter. In fact I couldn't get it going at first. We used the kicker to power up the Kasilof into Tustumena lake. It got so shallow that we had to get out of the boat and push it off some sand. It was quite an adventure. But at least the wheels stayed on the trailer this time! I've got some things to check. I'm almost tempted to give up. But I don't know how much I will be able to use it later this summer or next summer. So I will do what needs to be done. Otherwise not much is new. It seems silly to me that I am at this stage in my life and I can't even have one toy without being broke all the time. So I have decided to make some changes to our life. It will take some time but not even a beautiful night on Tustumena could convince me that I can keep going like this. Hope all is well with everyone. This weekend promises to be beautiful weather and I intend to enjoy it.
