Sunny California


Ok, maybe the weather this year has been anything but sunny but it's a might warmer than it is were I live. I got snowed on all day when I was in Greenville and the roads the next day were a mess all the way down to Mineral. Then the next day it rained so hard that the streets were flooding in Anderson where I was holed up at my sister's house trying to stay warm and dry.

I ended up meeting up with Bob and Dennis a day late due to the bad weather and Monday when we all met at the lake the rain was really coming down. There were some heavy showers going on that day and we were out in the boat trying to fish when one of them moved over us. We finally got a break on Tuesday and then Wednesday was just beautiful and we were finally able to get the heavy coats and sweatshirts off for a while. Unfortunately poor Dennis was sick and ended up going home when we got back to camp. The good thing that happened that day was that in the evening we saw some fish activity in the cove where we were camping and when I went down to throw a spinnerbait I started catching some really nice bass. I ended up catching the same number there that I did all day in about a half an hour and some of them were nice and chunky. Ya gotta love that!

So now I'm over in Fortuna till Monday when I head down to Napa to see Bill on my way back to Greenville for the night then Tuesday back to Idaho. Of course there is yet another storm coming for Sunday and Monday so my drive might be a little wet, I just hope it's not the color white.
