I hope all you Dad's have a happy Dad's Day, I'm taking
mom-in-law up north today where she'll visit relatives until next Tuesday. Wednesday SWMBO leaves for Orlando to attand the ALA annual conference. That means it's just me and the hound dog on our own for 5 days and I'm going to give myself a belated Father's Day fishing trip. Me and Kipper the hound will take up residence at the West Fork Sportsman's Club campground just outside Avalanche, Wisconsin on Thursday the 24th and leave at o-dark-thirty on Tuesday the 29th. Probably won't get in and get set up in time to fish on Thursday, but plan to flog the streams with fishing string Friday through Monday. The guy I talked to said the streams are back in their banks and the mosquitoes are out in force, so if you're in the area bring your deet and stop on by. -- Ken Fortenberry |

Sooooo . . . this temporary bachelor and a confirmed one canoed about eight miles of the Deerfield River today. Wonderful day, good company, a grilled steak dinner at the end with a few nice glasses of Merlot, AND I now know how much water the canoe holds. ![]() All of the kiddies called to wish me a good day while I was out, so they're still welcome back into the house. -- TL, Tim http://css.sbcma.com/timj |

Well I had the best father's day EVER. Had dinner with my two lovely
daughters and my oldest daughter's husband and I received the coolest cards along with a copy of the Oregon fishing guide, latest edition. I got to spend 3 hours listening to incedibly intelligent and beautiful people that got me to wondering how I could possibly be so lucky to be their Dad and Dad-in law. Then I spent too many hours last night reading my new book. I also rec'd a wonderful gardening how to book that will result in a better garden for everyone. I hope you are all jealous cuz you should be...for I have the best kids on this or any other planet! Bar none! Chris PS Please don't ask me about my kids at the Montana Clave, you don't have the time! |

Mine was great. I got up a little after five in the morning and came in to
ROFF. Scanned some back posts and read about the W.W.II Memorial project. Went to a few links, with photos of tired old soldiers and had a pint of Jim Beam cracked open by ten-thirty....spent the day outside. Around noon, the wife and little girl came out, gave me a card, said the loved me and went back inside, Mercifully short and sweet, I thanked them for that - but - I have been unable to get them to totally ignore me at times like these, or birthdays, or Christmas.... Holidays, days of torture for the emotionally empty.... john "Ken Fortenberry" wrote in message . ..
