Beautiful Summer Weather
On a canoe trip Saturday evening I noticed the first Joe Pie Weed in bloom this summer. That marks the beginning of the progression that to me marks the end of full summer and the beginning of autumn. Next I watch for the Cardinal Flower a bright red stalk along the river and finally Arrowhead will make its appearance along the banks. Here and there a tree or two has started to take on a reddish hue.
I fish with families all of the time and sometimes they are on several trips with me and sometimes several trips over years. I have enjoyed great times with them all and have been given the compliment that “fishing is better than x-box” by a twelve year old this summer.
