Default Summer fishing get-together?

I'm going to be back in the US for 5 weeks this summer, and will be
doing a drive from Maine to Indianapolis, back through DC, then back
to Maine during that time. If anyone wants to get together and fish
for a day or so, I'm way up for it.


My schedule is this:
Arrive in Maine on July 3.
Drive to IND, in time for a conference from July 8-12
Drive IND-DC on July 13
Return to Maine for the rest of the summer
Fly back to HK on Aug 8.


It would be fun to get together in Maine with any Maynahs, or meet up
with any roffians between Maine and Indiana, Indiana and DC, or DC and
Maine while driving through. My travel dates are flexible (just not
the week I need to be in Indiana, and my flight arrival and departure
dates).


Anyone interested, email me or post here.


And are there any fishing opps in or around Indianapolis?

I take it from this, Myron, that we will not be seeing you in the sunny
North this summer?

No, damnitall, and I regret it already. I had a non-negotiable for
early summer (a wedding in the middle east), and the rest of the
summer was wide open after that. My heart was into the idea of
spending a solid amount of time in Scandanavia (man, I LOVE it up
there in the summer), then coming back to HK for another Mongolia
trip, then back to school. But the Mongolia trip evaporated (too few
participants this year), and then I had to find a place to get some
professional training, and it turned out to be in the US. I could have
changed that, but I kept imagining the angst of spending a whole month
wandering alone around Sweden and only being able to hook up with you
guys on the weekends, so at the last minute, I booked tickets to the
US, paid for the conference, and made my final plans to spend a month
wandering around Maine with my canoe and fly rod instead.

The very next frigging day, I hear from Roger that he has 6 weeks
vacation, and it turns out that it would have been a sweet summer
after all, with a travel partner and fishing galore, etc. But its too
late to cancel the tickets and change my plans now. So I'm stuck with
lots of 'what-ifs'. :-(

Even when we have complete control of our plans, we don't always have
control of them.
