In quiet moments

"Work is only work when you'd rather be doing something else." Or so it is said.

To this point much of time at the property has been task driven - County/State forms and fees, meetings, construction, etc... Despite all of the official business we did manage to infuse the trips with many pleasurable moments. Overall it has been enlightening and enjoyable.

  3. The upside to fly fishing is that it is fun even when you aren't catching fish. Even away from the water you can have fun tying flys.

    The down side is that it's a gadget sport - if you are a gadget guy your wallet will be thinner when you take it up.
