While we endure the last day of the "Front Range Floods" in Commerce City, it is a good day to 

enjoy good, down to earth video short. Tommy Penick has put together a real nice selection of clips

that sum up a couple days of fishing. Only to be capped off by my favorite, a Mule.

We will start off with a cup of joe this morning while we watch it rain, yet another day.
