Slainte!

Well, it is that time of year, and not much could be better. Steelhead coming in to do the do, browns hammering streamers, hoops madness, and of course a healthy dose of green beer. Above is a shot of Mama ACF and me a few months back, in a scene that is an eerie reflection of tomorrow's plans.

Looks like Friday I may end up breaking a tradition held since graduation....looks like I will be hitting the water instead of spending the second consecutive day at BW3. Tough call to make, and I am sure I will get an earful tomorrow from the hoops crew, but river conditions region-wide look to be stellar and I have not made enough time to be on the water lately. I just may get the box below out for a little action...
