I love Summer

Bill has been managing his time well, so I am only needed in the shop here and there for errands.  I think tomorrow I am going 90 miles round trip to Irvington, NY. This is actually working out well because the bass fishing is pretty good right now. Last trip to Marshepaug I even caught a rainbow trout ... the caveat being that the water is so warm that any trout you catch you must kill because the water is so warm and the stress of being caught would kill the fish anyway.

That worked out fine.  The trout tasted great grilled in foil and eaten with fresh sweet corn on-the-cob.  Summer is a great time.

I had a fabulous time at Falcon Ridge.  Since I never know who I am camping with, I have had to revamp my gear a little so I don't bring so much. I find it hard to believe that a few short years ago I went camping on a motorcycle. Now I fill my Jeep from tailgate to passenger seat with necessities. And I nearly used it all!
