This was my mini vacation from vacation. I have been driving most of the time since I left and I needed to take a break. I spent 3 days around Fairbanks, mostly doing same things people usually do on weekends: laundry, washed the rig, sleep in late, read the book, watch some TV and take short excursion trips around town. I have to explain the RIG word. Everyone here north refers to the SUV trucks, pickups and other large vehicles as rigs. I always thought that was reserved for the 18-wheelers, monster trucks and road equipment like bulldozers. I felt like FJ Cruiser might be a mini-rig, but I never corrected them :) Anyone else has better explanation for the definition of the rig?
