    Default Back from the Fish In

    I just rolled in from the Missouri Fish In. I will fill in more details later, but basically it was a great time, I met some very nice people from FAOL (finally) and we even managed to catch a few fish. Everyone caught fish, but you had to work for them a bit. I'll give more details tomorrow. For now, here is a link to my pictures. I'll fill in details on those later, too. They are just loaded from the camera, so some of them may not be good pictures. I haven't had time to do much with them yet.

    The hardest thing about the pictures was finding a spot to get a good shot without crowding into someone's space. There are enough of those guys out there without my camera added in.
    I can say the one good thing about getting back early is that I have 4 days to tell the stories before anyone else gets back and can give another version.

    I'm ready to go back. I got back to work and unexpectedly had to immediately jump a plane out of town for the day, then my dog had to be put down while I was there. There is not much worse than an upset wife and kids, and being stuck away from them. I am so drained and numb right now. The report and pic descriptions will have to wait a bit. I'll give it a shot tomorrow.

    Dang, Blue. When it rains, it pours don't it. Spend all the time you need with your wife and kids. Fish-In reports aren't as important as they are.
