RIVER DAY 3/19/12



Things were quite a bit different this past Monday! We had seven guys down to the river last week to celebrate the holiday…Today…one! I (Tim) was the only one able to make it down this week, because of work schedules and personal schedules and Jay’s foot issue, (That’s a story for another time) nobody else could get down. It was still nice to carry on the tradition, even if I was alone. I wasn’t able to make it to the regular spot this week, it looked like Ron and Judy were there, probably getting things ready for the upcoming season. With the weather as nice as it’s been lately I can understand the eagerness to get things to a point that you can start spending the night. So I ended up going down to Glade Creek road to the second pull-off, by the bridges. Speaking of the weather, WOW! The temperatures were in the mid to upper 70’s and it was sunny. Just a side note, take a look at the pictures from just two weeks ago!! What a difference two weeks has made! We were throwing snow balls two weeks ago and I could have worn shorts this past, Monday! I was able to do a little fishing, didn’t catch anything but it was nice to be out there trying. Hoping for better conversation next week!

  1. Tim I'm glad you still got to celebrate River Day, even if you had to do it alone. I was "forced" into celebrating the holiday on a golf course this week.

    See you guys next week.

    (Where's the fire?!?)

  2. Mark, Sorry about your luck having to play golf on Monday... As far as the fire, the closest thing that I had to a fire was the flame on my lighter to light my stogie! However, it still may have been the best fire on the river! At least the best one that I saw....
