The Lady of the Lake

Not a whole lot to report. Today was the first day where we actually had a little time to relax. After waking up we headed to Fairbanks for a little shopping. While there we hit Denny's for some old-fashioned breakfast. I had to have SweetPea grab a pic of me next to the sign:
After brunch we stopped at a nearby lake just to check things out. We didn't grab any pics but the water was crystal clear. We could easily see different trout and who knows what else swimming around. We also went to a nearby creek and just loved the scenery and fish swimming around. I can't wait to get out and fish.

After that we stopped off at one of the lakes on base to see the infamous Lady of the Lake. The "Lady" is a B-29 that was sunk here in order for crews to practice water egress. Eventually they stopped using it for training and just left it in place. It's actually quite cool and creepy looking: I'm hoping to get out and fish tomorrow. We bought our licenses and are technically legal. Alaska has tons of fishing rules based on the part of the state and specific stream you are fishing. Hopefully, I won't get arrested...
