Back early from the fish in.....
Everyone is having a wonderful time and everyone is catching fish. I broke my arm on the second day , I couldn't fish after that but hung around because it was a blast!
I thought i had just badly sprained my wrist and it was getting better then 3:00am on the 4th dAy it began to really hurt. So I packed up and I drove for 9 1/2 hours back to Canada and free medicare . The x-rays showed a break of my arm just above the wrist. I am now sporting a pretty purple fiberglass cast from elbow to fingers. getting it reset was not a fun thing.
The people at the fish in so far have; fallen in (3 so far ), broke an arm, twisted an ankle , smacked into a log with their ribs, cracked their head on a rock and tossed the tip of a Channer bamboo rod into the selway so far (got it back ) . Plus a chicken went to its last reward. And there are two days left. Perhaps I am safer at home. :lol:
I got lots of pictures and hope to have them on here soon. Hard to type with a broken wing so I will sign off for now.
sure wish I could have met superman as rumors have it he flew in last night. Too late to xray vision my arm.

Must be something about Idaho. We went for our week at Henry's Lake from the 14th through the 24th, but I received a call on the 17th morning that my mother/my best friend did not wake up. A very big shock because ther was no warning and she had told me the day before to hurry home, she missed me.
I am sure she has her wings by now and is with me always.

All the rest of the "experiences" are understandable. Since nobody else is asking, just what the hell was a chicken doing at the fish-in? :shock: :shock: Was it there as part of a meal (fresh is best)...tying material (renewable resource)...someone's pet (I never met anyone with a pet chicken)? This ought to be a good one.

GBF,
Let's NOT tell Joe V what "that's" all about. It's to be experienced and not explained.
