Suddenly Spring
April 22nd, 2008
The weather here in the Taconic Plateau fiddled and diddled and then threw in the towel on winter. It’s spring.
The rivers are in great shape. I am not, however; there seems to be an extra ten pounds around the middle and a moderately vigorous fishing trip yesterday left me wiped out.
The Fish Car is loaded and ready; I like to be able to stop whatever I’m doing at a moment’s notice and go straight to the venue.
And for shlepping around, the classic combo of lightweight LL Bean casual trousers, Quoddy mocs, a Hanes polo bought from the pile at Wal-Mart, a ribbon belt from Lands End (these things go on sale for about eight bucks per, which makes them very hard to resist - I didn’t), and the usual swap’ em routine with the watch and the ribbon bands.
