It’s been said that when a senior departs, a library departs also. This is certainly the case with Deanna. After these many years of following her posts on FAOL, I was just starting to get to know...

Justifiable Grannypride!
Warm fuzzies going on here! Thanks for the replies. I've seen a few things on mop flies, but haven't pursued them. I'll give it a look. I think you're spot on PRM. I don't feel depressed, but I know...
I have been gone a long time as well. I lost my wife a couple of years ago and I guess it kinda knocked the starch out of me. I haven't been moping, but neither have I had ambition to maintain...
I've been attending an invalid wife for the last several years, and my fishing trips have been few and far between. Her earthly journey came to an end in March, so I've been released from those...
Thank you for all you've done Denny
Having a young brain and a 71 year old body is the pits. I have a fishing friend who's 20 years my junior, and he doesn't quite understand why I'm reluctant to accompany him down the steep 30 foot...
Hi Betty! I've been absent for awhile too, and have wondered about you. How is your health? I know you had some issues, and I hope you have them resolved. Congratulations on the Grandbaby! Look...
I have one of those that has quite a history. It was found about 30 miles west of where the Teton Dam broke in 1976. I bought it from a dozer operator who found it sticking out of a pile of debris....
Around here, I'm called Lewie "The Dip". Czar of the South Fork impromptu bathing society!!
This past summer, a friend and I took a little 3 day road trip to check out some areas we had never been to before. We live near Idaho Falls. It wasn't a fishing trip, so we didn't take any gear. We...
Welcome aboard Hayduke. I live over the hill in the upper Snake River valley, in Idaho. Snowpack at the present time is a bit above 100% of average for the drainage, and it could be a bit more, or a...
It's started in Australia, and it looks like it's headed this way!!!
Oh........... Never mind......... I guess Australia has always looked like that.
Looks like it's started in Australia and is headed this way!! Ooops. Never mind. Australia has always looked like that. Welcome Home BigPhish!
You Alaskans are all alike! LUCKY!
I expected to get swatted when I made the comment. I don't believe I've ever seen an arctic char except in pictures. I plead sleep deprivation as an excuse for even pushing the "post" button. I...
Hap. The lake trout we catch around here are called "mackinaw". The trout you're holding in the picture appears to be a "dolly varden", unless I'm mistaken.
Dolly's are char, and mackinaw are...
That commercial has bugged me for months. My wife got tired of my pointing out all the inconsistencies with the reality of flyfishing, although there are a few people around that probably could have...
What maodiver said! There's always somebody around to envy and try to degrade someone else's good fortune. If the naysayers were in his position, I'm sure the tune would be different. Bob deserves...
[QUOTE=NewTyer 1;456094]Tomorrow will be our 9th Anniversary.
We have had some rough times since I've come home from Iraq and I have really put a lot of stress on our marriage but, we are seeing...
Coming up on our 50th wedding anniversary this Friday. Any woman who could stand by me for 50 years oughta be nominated for sainthood, or..........have her head examined.:lol:
Bought a tube of Wonder Wax years ago. Haven't used anything else, so I have nothing to compare it to. It's still fairly fresh after all that time. Now comes the question. If it's that good, and...
If the mated couples lose their chicks, will they try again, or give it up? Can't help but think that they have evolved a mechanism for taking these conditions into account. At least I hope so....
How 'bout "Over Easy"?
Does it float well when dressed?
