Will do. Oh, Sep 15th is the first day of ruffled grouse season (the
call the "parkers"). I think I'll take the other bits of yellow, or
international orange, and wear it. Maybe I'll get my daughter's
Syracuse fleece.


Just stay where I can see you g



uh oh... cheneyphobia

Big woods up there.....lots of room. Chances of getting Cheneyd are
vanishingly small. Odds are we won't even hear any gunfire.

Mostly gone by this time of year.

and fear of flying...

Flying is nothing to worry about. It's the parts where you're close to
the ground that.......well, you know.

but, i'm starting to get stoked about the yoop redux and seeing it in
sept. my only other time up there was in may, several years ago...one
of the best trout adventures i've had, thanks to wolfgang's hospitality
and knowledge.

See, this is precisely the sort of thoughtless crap that is ruining
this place. It could take my hard-won reputation weeks to recover from
this little fit of unprovoked praise!

Anyway, if my research these past few weeks is any indication, we're
going to see some streams this time around that will make us forever
rue the time we wasted on that last jaunt.

guess i need to begin thinking about packing...anyone
located the closest fly shop to the marquette airport?

Well, if it's just flies you're interested in, you're going to be
sitting next to the best fly shop you're likely to encounter for an
hour or more twixt Detroit and Marquette. When you guys touch down,
I'll create a diversion and you and John can dry gulch him at baggage
claim.

If there's anything else you need, I've found indications of fly shops
of some sort in Marquette but none of them has their own web presence,
so I can't tell you much about them.
