We don't lock Rancho Deluxe, tho we should.. and when I park
I leave the keys in the ignition at home.. (*shouldn't do that
as well)..

And you are right..

I returned to the part of So.Cal I grew up in and remarked
to Cdr.Jen how un-"street-wise" I felt.. The town had mayby
been just a seedy as then, but I didn't live there..now<G>

A car full of kids yelled at me and made guestures because I
was from out of state<G> *Local pride in being idiots, I guess<G>

We stayed at a Motel accross from Knotts Berry farm in BuenaPark
and the "DeskClerk" stole our money for the 2nd night and we had
to recover Josh's hamster from the pound<G>

Next day, I saidd let's get out of here, and on Beach Blvd. in Stanton
Ca I pulled into an antique Ford parts store to visit, just as the Cops
slid in behind us with racked shotguns! A "perp" was hold up in a bar next
door! The partsman waved us to huddle behind his counter.. "1/4 plate
steel you know.." "I gortah brother in Oregun, who tries to tell me
to leave.. *but that rain.."

Yup..  In Warsh'nton you can pack a pistol on yur hip<G> and when
in the backwoods you should!

*It's very out of fashion, However so folks get a "conceled whep permit"
and never use it..

*I happen to worry about the Grandpa WW2 vet with 50 year old
combat fatigue getting in a "road rage" situation<G> somewhere
follow'n the phrase: "dirty hippie" .45 cal lead might fly!

Yup.. well that's where it went-

Steelhead are Trout that migrate out to the ocean and return like
Salmon..  To fish'em.. you use a Fly rod for sport or get serious
and bait cast.

Bait cast'n involves a large curvy barbed hook and a chunk of bright
yarn or chunk of squid,.. some spray WD40 on the bait or whatever yur
guru tells you<G>

*Then you pitch it out normaly with a pencil lead stuck in a chunk
of surgical tube attached to a long leader with swivel..

The current makes the yarn "flitter" and come alive and the lead
bounces along the bottom of the rocks.. and give's you a "feed"
or "feelin" back thru the rod to your hand..

*When you get a "strike" *Boom- you hit the rod upward-

This most likely will NEVER BE A FISH<G>

It does however make you look good the the other pretender
Fishermen outdoors in the weather<G>

*I lost my lead.. and used my key, then lost the key and came home<G>

Remember! 
Allways GO HOME!

You don't catch Steelhead in the liveing room, but people who
care about you are likely there.. and it's allways about the next
adventure anyway!
