Remembering the fight (conservation is ALWAYS a fight) to save the Rattray from developers. I met Ruth several times when I was birding at the marsh.

Watching a pair of river otters cavorting in the Madawaska River this morning. Dangerous to ascribe emotion to wild animals but it do look like they are having fun.
I know I am.

When I started collecting topographic maps of Northern Ontario, they cost me 1.50 ea. (In mid-seventies dollars). A look at prices today shows over 25.00 each for a waterproof map. I must have the equivalent of 3000.+$ worth of maps under my bed. 1/2

Spent a long weekend exploring the UP of Michigan and fly fishing trout. Friday, we hiked four plus miles of river through national forest. So many fresh wolf tracks. Public lands are a treasure.

A nature lover is someone who, when treed by a bear, enjoys the view.

Back - reluctantly - from our canoe trip in Northern Ontario. Hot and bright weather made for challenging fishing, at least for me. My wife outfished me and didn't seem to be affected by the same conditions as me. Expected to be chucking large flies at pike - except we didn't see any pike at all.

Tying flies - but not fishing them.
A shoulder injury is keeping me off the river, except as a spectator. That, and the quintupled water flow rate presently..

Been in the hospital with a family member for the last several days, and I've said it before but - if you ain't got your health, you ain't got anything.
