Lemons into Lemonade

Story-
My adopted son was 20 years old he went to a party and the police came to break it up. He was drunk. This was in the winter time in Colorado about -1. He decided to sit in the passenger seat start his truck to do the right thing. Later on a police officer came and knocked on his window. He was still over the limit. The arrested him and charged him with a DWI. He took it like a man and did the requirements that the judge gave him.
After all done a friend of his in Alaska asked him if he would like to come up and learn to be a guide. He did.
Today he is guiding all over the world he is now 25. Been to Asia, New Zealand, and home base his home base of Alaska.
He is still single and keeping it that way and I keep telling him you are living every man's dream. I am very proud of him.

Good man! It took my step-son getting a DUI twice (before the age of 18) until he straightened out. Sober for 12 years now and still leads groups for NA (he thought, and is probably correct, that AA was not the right 'help' group). He's become a successful career person and has kids of his own now - different person. Glad your boy took to the outdoors for a clean life. Nothing wrong with staying single either (it saves you a ton of money!).

Great story and a great son to be proud of. Love the outdoors and AK, go there every year.
