The Pop Stand

In Costa Rica their called “Sodas.”  Road side eating places where people can stop, eat, converse, and take a load off even it is for a few moments. Around here I guess we call them diners or “Greasy Spoons,” or locally “The Pop Stand.”  Greasy burgers, tater tots, and Wilcoxon’s

Family Float Day on the Yellowstone River

The barbeque in the middle of the boat ramp at Carter’s Bridge was a perfect symbol representing the heat we have been enduring here in Montana for the last few days.  A local bar had set up the grill and was selling jello shots, brats and beer to anyone playing

About three weeks ago I had the pleasure to fish with Bill K and Jay C.  These are two of my most favorite guys and we have been able to keep a streak of continuous years of fishing together for about 14 years.  They knew me when I lived in
