We had a good month off and are back on the blog again. And we did do some fishing. We spent a few days out in the Black Hills of South Dakota with a day trip into Wyoming.
We are taking the month of June off. We have some family visiting and some landscape projects we are working on. And, if all goes well, some fishing too!
You can check out our old posts by category or tags. The categories and tags are found along the right side of our pages. You can also look back at the archives.
You can find all our posts about fishing here. You can see where the blog all started with the Grand Tour of the West.
We’ll be back in July! See you then!

Disaster come in all shapes and sizes, from a tree falling on your house to the zombie apocalypse. You might need to leave home in a big hurry, with what you can quickly grab, and the clothes on your back. A bug out bag gathers the things you need to grab and go. How important is that?
