We left the house in the rain, saw a bit of sunshine around Quake Lake and then entered the downpour in the Madison Valley. At first, the weather was warm and tolerable, but sometime around 1:30 the wind shifted out of the north and it got down right cold. The Madison is still green and [...]

I don’t hack into Joe’s Blog too often, but since it is a special day for him, I thought I would. Reading the following post seems that he got his birthday present a day early as the Maddie fished like a champ. Anyway, I just wanted to say have a good one Joe-Joe, and I [...]
