Some stretches of the Salmon River were a challenge to navigate in waders.
Where the river was wide it, virtually, called to those passing by, "Come, enjoy yourself!" And, many did.
In the main river, hooking-up was easy. Hooking-up and landing was a challenge. My nephew, Lamar had determination as he learned the ropes of the river. He is a fine fishing companion.
In the end he was rewarded for his can-do attitude.
We enjoyed our time together so much that we plan to do it again in 2009.****
The sign says fishing's great, and, they never wet a hook! But, they are soul mates, forever.
Waterfalls are always an enjoyable diversion.****
We caught BIG Kings in this little turn in the Orwell Brook.****
Salmon River Falls, a jewel in the backwoods.****
Yes, Billie will always be my greatest catch! She never says, "Don't go." to anything I want to do. My best friend, and eternal love is welcome to go with me, anytime!
****
What is Real?After all the fishing's done,
And, I have had my fun,
Hand in hand we'll have a chat,
Of this and, then, of that.
Leaving rod and fishing reel,
I'll tell you how I feel.
"Nothing stands an inch above
Our never ending love."

That is a nice thing to write about mom. It is good for a daughter to hear her dad say such good things about her mama.
You know what you should do is dig up a few old saining pictures and scan them in! I think I have a few.
The greatest thing I ever did for my children was choosing their mother. Dad
That almost brought a tear to my eyes. You are so good with words. What a romantic you are. (As long as you don't use the word ecstasy!-smile)
