A long time ago I worked with a young lady that was a full time Fish & Wildlife officer. For years she'd come to work in her uniform, gun and all, change up, and work nights with us. One day she said she got a promotion of sorts. F&W was moving her to Alaska. Not long after she went we started getting letters and pictures. They'd set her up in a Cabin on a river, got her a Cessna on amphib floats, and they paid for her to get her commercial & instrument tickets to fly the thing.
Life is interesting. We <span style="font-style: italic">all</span> thought she had the best job in the world. Pretty sure it still ranks right up there. No snorkeling involved.
