It’s been a whirlwind since getting off the boat in Baja Friday. Saturday we drove seven hours south to Cerritos. Sunday I flew north up the Baja coast with a perfect view all the way to Los Angles. At 11:59 pm I boarded a redeye from LA to Minneapolis and arrived at 5:30 am Monday. Then went onward to Duluth and made the drive home to Hayward.
I got home around 1 pm and unpacked from Baja. I double checked the packing I did two weeks ago for a few days in Atlanta to speak for the Atlanta Fly Fishing Club and was right back on a plane yesterday morning to Atlanta. I’m staying with friend Austin Kane and his family.
The crud that had me miserable Friday, Saturday and Sunday couldn’t handle my travel schedule and luckily by the time I got to Atlanta it was gone. I felt great today and joined Austin to his local gym then this afternoon I finally got some rest.
Tonight I delivered one of my many PowerPoint Presentations, “So, You Want to be a World Traveling Fly Fisher” to the Atlanta Fly Fishing Club. It was my first gig of the 2023-2024 speaking season. It was a full house at the Manuel’s Tavern and I felt no rust from several months off from speaking. I love doing these gigs!
I’m sticking around here in Georgia to fish two days with Austin and friends. I feel like I haven’t been fishing enough lately so this short trip will help. My rehabbed shoulder has been treating me well so I’m gonna use it!
