December Cold and Snow...

Merry Christmas

Happy Winter Solstice

Holiday Joy to All!

 The beauty found in nature is perfect, The hand of man seldom matches the wonders of our natural world. Human beings, often the unwitted destroyers of our most valuable resources, will soon learn the pain of losing that source of life!

Fly fishing for me is the juice that connects to the source of life. 

Cutthroat Trout eat year round. With patience and determination the reward, comes to the net. They are not easily fooled, making this a matching of wits. Nature and man, briefly westling one another, opening the door to the soul. As I carefully release every trout, I can feel the sigh of relief from the river.   

My soul mate, the river gives me endless times of joy. We are together as one, we flow during the most difficult of times. This is a gift for man to touch. We may live close by, but we cannot own nature. Man plows, paves, diverts and dams up the flow, but nature prevails. Hidden in the minds of men is nature itself. There to salvage it self from the drain.

 

 
The wonders of winter have descended upon the landscape
Montana is like other Rocky Mountain states. It is just clearly a beautiful place. The worst of weather comes in the winter, but it is not show stopper. Life just changes,slows down while  beauty continues to surround.
