Summer 2011

Well I turned fifty this past September and decided I wanted to take a cross country fishing trip when the school year ended in June.   Started shopping for a truck this winter and was lucky enough to find exactly what I was looking for on Craig's List.  Surprisingly, my first Craig's List purchase after all these years of ebay and on-line shopping.  The plan was to start on the Cape and end up in Washington State.  As with many good plans, something comes up and throws a curveball at you.  This spring a great course opportunity arose which meant 5 days in Virginia the end of July.  5 Credits(which will pretty much wrap up my certification renewal for New Hampshire and Vermont(hopefully my last renewal) in part of the country I have never been and sponsored by the Appalachian Trail Organization(cool).  Having to be in Virginia the end of July forbade me from driving the width of the country, thus the plan was altered.  Started on the Vinyard, will fish in the northeast via the truck, a flight to the Bitterroots, then some more truck fishing on the way home from Virginia.
