New Camera for the Floatfisher

The Floatfisher family invested in a new camera to capture our adventures this summer and beyond. Although I learned today I have a lot to learn ( I mean a lot), I am excited to study and learn this new hobby. We scrapped up the pennies, dimes and quarters, knocked the neighborhood kids off their bikes and took their money, traded in Mary's aluminum beer can fund and sold off my prized butterfly collection. And, oh yea, I only have one kidney now.

We also got a nice macro lens to go with it to shot flies and other neat close shots. Can't wait to start shooting thing. Guess I have to start by reading the manual and figure out how the camera works. Holy schmoly are there a lot of settings and buttons. As mentioned, gotta a lot to learn. Well thats what the non fishing time and winter is for....

Memorial Weekend Memories

As all holidays should be spent, with family or great friends. We 

has the opportunity to enjoy the river with great friends on a lovely

13 mile float. Water levels were optimal and weather was terrific. The

result was a wonderful 6 hours on the river for the day. Several great 

stops for lunch and a cocktail. All was good.

Neat chunk of drift wood

Oh No, the start of high water is taking it't toll on the patio. Bloody Mary's
and Moscow Mules were the drink of the day.
