Long time and I've missed you all

Hello again to everyone at FAOL! It's been almost a year since I was an active poster. In the meantime a lot has transpired but I have missed this community greatly and been reminded of you often and so I am back! I am oh-so-excited to catch up with everyone and am going to now peruse the latest posts.

I am SO EXCITED TO BE BACK!!!!!!! :D:D

P.S. I DID go trout fishing on my honeymoon! My husband, Chris, and I went to Montauk State Park in southern Missouri and stayed in a cabin for three nights while we fished during the day. They weren't wild trout, but it was fun all the same.

Here are some pictures from our honeymoon:

See the trout in the bottom right?

The water was COLD! (Mr. JohnScott, do you recognize the fly rod?)

Also, here is a decoration from my husband and my wedding that I think you will all get a kick out of. The "I DO" was my husband's doing! We made it from an old picnic basket we found at Goodwill! LoL! :-D

Mrs. Karli-Rae, You were missed good to see you back on the board. I figured you had gone off to be a wife, nurse abandoned the slinging of line. I think of you everytime I get a bead out to put on a fly.
