I have a friend who is a "retired" biologist but now works full time
for a company that does research for the US Forest Service. He was
doing some water studies on six streams that originate in the
north-east slope at the edge of the High Uintas Wilderness area in
Utah, and invited me to come along for company. The plan was to park
the truck at a lake called "Hoop Lake" and then he'd take a 4-wheeler
to the rivers while I baby sat the truck and fished the lake. That
sounded like a good plan to me! We left at 7:30 AM and arrived about
three hours later. I pumped up a kick boat and geared up and he took
off to do his job.

The best part is that I did all of this just four months out of my
knee replacement surgery, and the knee worked great, really no
problems at all. All in all, a great trip, a "this is what retirement
is all about" adventure.
Good on ya, Tom. I've not heard of many knee replacements that could
handle that much fun that soon.
Congrats on a fine day of fishing and thanks for the report. Made me
feel a lot better about life to know there is still
fishing going on and some precip happening.
I'm told we have rain lurking just to the west of us tonite. Hoping it
meanders on over here and camps out on us.
