Local celebrity.
Yesterday, Ron Baird came into the Orvis shop where I work. Of course he was looking for someone else, but it was still cool to meet him. I figure if we were to stick around, I would have a chance to meet John Gierach eventually as well, but I will have to start looking for Washington authors soon.

I just ordered 500 Super Red Worms when I found out this morning that the worms in my bin didn’t survive the single digit temperatures over the last week. I am sad for the little guys that have been eating all my compost, but stoked to be getting more. a lot of moisture is produced and I am sure that the castings (poop) are in the water that drains out. Being winter though, I just throw it on the ground and hope the grass grows there in the spring!

We swam for the first time in a bout a month. 400 warm up, 200 skips (swim, kick, IM, pull, swim 200 each), then a push up ladder (25 swim 10 pushups, 50 swim, 8 pushups, etc.) 200 non free, 200 cool down. That made me feel out of shape!
My fly box is getting set up for Bali:
The weather has been freezing and we have been able to let the dogs out on the water:
