A Smooth Day of travel To Slave Lake

The Last Chancer's left Ft. Nelson at 8:45 am. after returning the red Laurentian and saying hi to Amber who was working the morning shift. Climbing southeast the sky was clear and winds were good for an extra 7 knots. Arriving at Ft. St. John sooner than expected the guys quickly refueled at the Esso fuel stop and departed for Slave Lake. Again the winds were good but it was getting bumpier. 2.4 hours later the men were decending into Slave Lake and another motel. A nice young man named Mike met them on the ramp and refueled the Last Chance. Tying up the airplane and taking their bags to the FBO the men called a motel and booked a room. Now how to get there. Jeff the lineman they met on the way up at CAN WEST came by and said hello and offered to take them in the company truck to the motel. At that moment Mike came in and said his shift was over so he would take them in his truck to the motel. These guys are great! Mike deposited the men at the Lakeside Motor Inn where they were greeted by Sam the owner. Sam is a transplanted South Korean. He's been in Canada for 10 years and is now a citizen. The men told them their story and he was skeptical that Bill was 87. Looking at the website blog on his computer convinced him they were legit.
After a huge supper of spaghetti and meat balls he guys bedded down for the night and planning the next day's travel.
