Life in the now.

Yep, almost two months into this adventure and I (Paul) have slowed down sufficiently to live in the now. I can sit quietly and do nothing more than listen to a bird sing, or watch some squirrels chase each other around. I can enjoy the now that is, right then, unhurried. Just enjoy it. What a gift.

Comin' in Hot

As our river moves into its late summer mode, the water is getting clearer and the smallmouth bass are getting hungrier. Both make for good times on the water. By September it's so clear that you can see your toes when you're in chest deep water. By that time the smallies are stuffing their bellies with big ol' crawfish. They got pretty big mouths for fish called smallmouths.
