Not my cup of tea.

I got word that the distant Abres system needed Osmium and considering that is not a mineral widely trade I decided to take a break from the monotonousness that is trading. I left my Type-9 back in Anlave system as I kitted out an ASP Explorer for mining and made my way to Abres. After initially fumbling and being discouraged with the apparent difficulty full-time miners would chuckle at due to my inexperience I eventually over the course of half a day delivered 67 tons of Osmium to the Abres system. While I do enjoy the piece and quiet without having to deal with pirates interdicting me on my Type-9 I can safely say mining isn't my cup of tea. I'll return to Federation space and return to trading this mining expedition however was a relaxing change of pace and a good learning experience. I even managed to nab about 5 tons of painite I've never actually seen the stuff before.
