First year growing garlic. Pretty happy with the results, will definitely try more next year.

This describes me to a T! Although, with my torn tendons forcing me to rest, I am making a dent in the piles! #reading #library #books

I think I have tied enough chironomids to get me started! #flytying #flyfishing #trout

It’s ready! I rebuilt my old pram over the winter. I’m very happy with it, rows like a dream and is so steady you can stand in it and cast. #trout #troutfishing #oldboats

Since 10/2024, I have had awful pain in my leg. 6 doctor’s later, finally diagnosed as an “anterior tibialis tendon rupture”. May 2, I received a “donor” tendon. Now stuck in recovery mode. No weight bearing for 1-3 mos. 6-9 mos more of PT for recovery! Ugh! No fishing, gardening or hiking in 2025!

Good afternoon in the garden! Maybe I should get a lottery ticket?

Seen my first snow bunting today. What a beautiful bird!

Another birdhouse commission for a friend who worked at this restaurant when he was young.

Sometimes the Gods favor you. Eastern Washington, tiny little creek. (Released to catch again another day).
