River Day 09/20/2010







Same crew again this week at the river (wow, two weeks in a row!); Jay, Tim, and I (Mark). We were back at our normal spot this week (picture shows the camp from the river). Once again we had great weather as we get closer to fall; clear skies, temperature around 80. The wind had come up a bit before I got there (late, again) and Tim said it looked like it was snowing leaves. Won't be long till they're all coming down.

For the first time this year, the water was so low that you could walk across the rocks out to the current without having to wade through any water, so we all hiked out and did a little fishing. Despite the locals saying that the fish aren't biting, I managed to catch a total of 18 for the evening; 11 of them before we had dinner. (The other two will have to confess to how many they caught.)

We had hot dogs on the grill this week (thanks Jay!); nice simple dinner. You know, I've come to realize that hot dogs taste better at the river than anywhere else.

Once again, a great evening with good company.
