About the RAIN.

So we have had a few days of some pretty serious rain up here in NH this week. Rain is fine... it can be a welcome respite from a dozen 95 degree days in a row. I think so anyway. But not everyone shares my opinion on this.

Yuck. Isn't that sort of what you think and feel when you look at that picture? Just... Yuck. Now try imagining that you have to let that creature in your house. In your very small, nearly impossible to keep clean and dry Airstream Trailer. Yeah. Yuck. They don't seem to make compact cleaning devices capable of handling wet, dirty Schweenie. You just have to sort of mop up as best you can and be willing to find bits of wet debris on your pillow or perhaps even in your coffee cup. It gets in places you can't imagine. When I say "it" please refer to the photo above for an idea of what "it" is I am speaking of. It's inescapable.

Anyway... Billy took a fly fishing course this past weekend and has been tearing up the scene with all manner of tiny lures with names like "Black Woolly Bugger" and the ever popular "All Purpose Caddis." He's out fishing from the kayak in the mouth of the river as I write this and has vowed not to come back until he has landed "a big one." I will be sure to let you all know what the results are.
