Brilliant Move

Sometimes the big decisions aren’t made: they just happen. My days at Alaska Ocean Products, the salmon cold storage plant that employed me, were numbered. Fish and Game had a date marked on their calendar to indicate the end of the season, and even before that date arrived, I would be up and on my way. Exactly in which direction, I had not completely decided.
