ahhhhh yes, flyfishing. [wistful smile]
It's been way too long. My flyrod and vest are in the trunk of my car, but they're really lonely and neglected. I have not, unfortunately, been out exercising any trout for a long time. Used to a LOT, back when I lived within range of several streams -- I don't any more and miss it badly.
But then I haven't done a whole lot of ANYTHING for about 8 months, and it's enormously frustrating. My docs in the hospital in February said it would be maybe 6 months till I was back to about 50 percent and unfortunately they were right. (I didn't think so at the time.)
RE: Michigan, I was there only once, visiting an old high school buddy who had moved to Kalamazoo. I remember the sand and the pines, but didn't get to fish there.
RE: flyfishing and memories -- you've read Norman Maclean's book A River Runs Through It right? Other favorites are John Gierach and Nick Lyons.
RE: La Brea Bakery. Best darned bread I've *ever* bought in a store !!!
