I was standing in the airport, looking at the big board with all the flights, trying to find mine. They flights flipped so fast it took me 5 minutes to find mine. But there is was, my 6 hour flight, and that was just the first flight I had to take. The next flight was an additional 4 hours. Wow, I was going to be exhausted by the time I got there. After too many airports and no real food all day I finally stepped off the plane in Dutch Harbour, Alaska. It was July and it was a chilly, well chilly for me , 60 degrees. I found my hotel, one of three. I managed to lug all my shit in with only one trip. Once I got into the room I zipped open my suit case and pulled out the first hoodie I found. Better.

I asked the women at the front desk if she had any tourist brochures, she handed me a whole pile and asked if I needed any help. I shook my head and walked out the front door, camera in hand. Walked through the town, not a complicated task. It took all of 30 mins, that including stopping to tie my shoe twice. Stupid round laces, i thought to myself, then i wondered why anyone would make round laces. Hmph, something to think about.

I got to a spot where I could see the water, beautiful. I took of my lens cap and snapped a few pictures. I made my way down another street and found a bar/restaurant, the sign said open and I was starving. It was dim in there , my eyes taking more then a few seconds to adjust. When everything became clear, it was empty, almost deserted, like a ghost town, which was why I was here in the first place.

"can I help you?" a cute little blonde asked from behind the counter, she couldn't have been much other then me.

"the sign said you were open." I wasn't so sure if they were now.

"we are" she said, looking confused.

I started walking over to the bar and grabbed a seat.

"got a menu?" I asked.

Silently she handed me a menu. I'm sure she was thinking I was crazy.

"cheeseburger, fries, and a pepsi please"

she nodded and headed back to the kitchen. I sat in the quite for a long time before she said anything.

"tourist?"

"nope."

"really?!" she said surprised. "then what are you doing here?" she asked handing me my plate.

"my boss sent me, he wanted to see what it was like for smaller places that don't have much other then seasonal workers, was like without them here and then with them here. This is where he chose to send me. I work for a magazine."

"Casey" she said holding out her hand.

"Jules" I said holding out my right hand, using the left to shove a fry into my mouth. It burnt but I was too hungry to care, i kept eating until it was gone, all of it, then I moaned as it all hit my stomach.

"that was good, thank you"

"you're welcome." she said with a smile as she took my plate and placed it in the kitchen.

"so lots for you to write about huh?" she nudged her head towards the empty place. I giggled

"yeah, I should have brought some paper, not sure I can remember everything."

she laughed wildly, throwing her head back. I didn't think I was that funny. But hey I'll take it.

"so Jules, how long do you have to be here for?"

"well, until it picks up and dies down again, you tell me"

"well its only the end of July, so you have until October until the boats come in...." I already knew this, being a fan of Deadliest Catch, but I let her continue.

" then they come back and forth through the season for different reasons" this I knew too. I had been watching since the first episode aired.

"right, I've seen the show." I confessed to her.

I must have sat there talking to Casey for hours, when I left it was dark, I was thankful that this place wasn't very big. I made my way back to the hotel and crashed into my bed, before even changing.
