since I am allowed to drive and shoot now That's good news! Just don't do both at the same time.... and maybe avoid headbanger music...(grin) Headbanger music is a must when I'm driving. Why not, some Five Finger Death Punch maybe? So happy you can get away for some recreation! Geno.

Healthy Geno. You have the ability to put n for a landowner tag?
How'd you do in the Draw. Up to 10 points myself.
Haven't checked the results yet. Put in for archery here so I can just walk out back if I draw. Only been a resident a short time, and got a B zone tag last year, so no real bonus points. Put in for archery elk here too, Warner's and North Garden. Good luck with that eh? Geno

Santiam: Your wonderful photo reminds me so much of the many happy Steelhead fishing ventures I have been on in the Pacific Northwest! Thank you for sharing and posting it. Is that fish from the "Santiam" - I have never fished there but have fished the Willamette and the Deschutes there in Oregon. I ran a Steelhead Fishing Guide Service for a few years and had visions of doing it full time once I "retired" but I chose to move myself and my family out of "taxington". I do miss the Steelheading though (the only thing I miss about the Puget Sound area!). Thanks again. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy South Santiam.. Been watching the numbers coming over the falls...Looks like it is going to be another tough year.

This cloud was a pretty big one. Radar showed it at 30+/- miles E-W and 20+/- Miles N-S. Very little rain out of it, head a couple of rumbles only. 2 hours later it was still basically in the same spot but breaking up, and it gave us a decent show: Geno

Lots of rain and mud today Looking for bears near glacier in a creek bottom, none to be found today. Too many storms to chance a hike. Huckleberry bear claw from Polebridge , mmmmm Montana sucks

Wife and I took a trip to Crater Lake NP last week. She'd never been. Gorgeous day, still quite a bit of snow so the East Side Road was closed. But overall we had a great day trip The great thing about the West, on a clear day one can see for miles and miles: Any botanists/plant biologists know what this wildflower is? Taken near the top of Crater Lake South entrance: Geno

This is about as far as I go without bringing food into the picture (good place for a pun). My version of a quiche-omelette cross — a ”quichette?” A seven-egg, heavy whip cream blend with sausage, fresh mushrooms, onions, and sun-dried tomatoes. With half a handful of shredded cheddar on top. And a ground-elk assisted goulash. That’s it for now. Keep it great!
