Fuzz watched the race. Great win for Alaska and the US. She is so young and should be around for the next Olympics.

Pretty big deal for us. We have had a few world class athletes but darn few so when one happens it is a pleasant surprise.

6 small cutthroat on the Soda Butte just above the confluence with the Lamar river. Paradise!

Lake was nice so we went trolling. We each got a lake trout, wife got first one, I got smallest and Landon got largest. Brutus gave them all a loving lick on the nose before sending them back.

Got the hook out of mine and then tangled in the net, Alison and I were working at untangling it and Landon was bored dangling and dipping the other hook in the water on other side of the boat, basically just watching it splash, playing around as kids do when bored when his big one came up and took a bite of it... We both thought he was joking when he calmly said, "I caught a fish".... He wasn't bored after that :p

It’s august. We have folks down here pushing the indecency laws and still sweating through clothes. You’re wearing “winter” hats and mittens. I’m not sure which is worse weather.

Nice fish Narfi! Do you keep those for eating? And if so how are they?

Don't know about Narfi but over on this side of the mountain it has been a cold, wet and windy summer. Sort of strange how much of the lower 48 has been so hot and dry and we have been wet and cold. :doh:
