In the video I comment about Dad going sideways, but his oar lock fell out, so he had no choice.

The Green River

I think we will make this an annual event. Last year we fished the lower Green River and had a good time. This year the same, but the weather didn't cooperate and we had equipment problems. It was still a lot of fun and I enjoyed spending time with Dad and we did catch fish.
The river is popular, but flyfisherman are usually nice people. They release the fish, don't pollute, and respect the river and the beautiful surroundings.
I plan on doing this trip next year. Anyone is welcome to come.

Snowed in!

Well kind of...the snow drifted pretty high in some spots, like around the garage doors. 24 hours of snow and wind created a mess for me. Luckily I didn't have to leave this weekend.

First fish of 2009

I went fishing last Saturday with Aaron Johnson. We fished and explored most of the day and this was the only fish we got. A good fish to start the year with. 18 inch rainbow trout.

Isaac Finds a Sport!!

Isaac finally found a sport he likes. We took him skiing at the snowy range ski resort in Wyoming last Saturday. Other than a few accidents on the chair lifts, he did really great skiing. I told him he needed a sport other than the Wi outdoor challenge.

Christmas Cards

I have noticed that there is a trend for people to send Christmas cards and instead of a family photo, you get pictures of their kids. I have to wonder why they would not include a picture of themselves(the parents)?
I know some people may not want others to see themselves going bald, obese, pregnant, etc......so what. If you see my mug on a picture, then it can't get any worse than that, plus I hate having my picture taken.
A lot of blogs don't include pictures of the parents, but that doesn't bother me as much because usually people don't mail me a blog.
Maybe in the future people will just include a picture that is such an extreme close up that all you see is an eye or a hand.
