Aaron Lenox has some memorable first impressions of Anchorage, Alaska.
The Bradenton Christian and Furman University grad was there on business for a medical software company and was eating breakfast in his hotel when the building started shaking.It was only a 3.0-plus earthquake.

Aaron is the youngest of Ed and Joanne Dick’s eight children.

He gets his bachelors in exercise science in December and plans to pursue a masters in it, too.

So the Bradenton couple got comped for their trouble.
Then Brian sat down at a slot machine and — bingo! — hit the jackpot.
How much?
Put it this way. In all the excitement, they almost missed the flight, but Brian didn’t care.
He’d won enough to easily spring for a couple of plane tickets home.
