Left Tullahoma, TN at 8:30 am on the first leg of my drive to Worley, ID. It was 80 degrees and cloudy 463 miles later in Urbana, IL it was 59 !! And looks like it will not improve much for a couple of days. It's snowing in the Black Hills!!
Tomorrow I've got a short hop over to Cedar Rapids, IA to mooch of relatives for the weekend then on to Mitchell, SD (this time I want to see the inside of the Corn Palace!!) It's going to start warming up by then and be pushing the 80's by the time I get to Worley by way of Gillette, WY and Deer Lodge, Mt.
FYI Worley is 35 miles south of Coeur d'Alene. My kid brother is the manage of Heyburn State Park so again I get to mooch off relatives! He and I will be heading down to Lowell for a few days with the gang at the Fish-In.
I've been invited to demonstrate furled leader making at the Sept. 18th meeting of the North Idaho Fly Casters and before leaving for the Fish-In I plan to shoot over to WA and visit Denny (it's only about a 70 mile trip!).
I'll try to keep up with progress reports and any good fish porn I run into.
P.S. This Sunday's Chat Room will be coming from Mitchell, SD.
