Gone Fishing. No Nasty Comments Please.
By Tom Chandler on Jan 21, 2007 in Underground Entertainment
After working the last three weekends, I’m taking Monday off and going fly fishing.
I’m experiencing absolutely no remorse.

To heighten the envy, I live at the base of Mount Shasta (background) - just below that thin sliver of snow at the right edge of the frame.
Back again Tuesday. Maybe.

Hey, you live by Mt. Shasta?! How cool. I didn’t realize we were so close. Has it been as cold there as it has here? Sheesh. Our pool actually froze, leaves mid-water and all. Hope you caught something good, and big!

So nice to be reading through my RSS feeds and see that you live by Mt. Shasta! I grew up in Redding, California (we were just 5 minutes from Shasta Lake) and we made frequent trips to a place called Gumboot Lake that is up in your neck of the woods. I live in Portland, Oregon now, but I have fond memories from my childhood of Mt. Shasta, Lake Siskiyou and Gumboot. Have fun on your fishing trip!

Diane; Where do you live?
Shannon: Gumboot is one of my favorite quick afternoon fishing raids, though the crowds of drive-in campers in the summer make it an undesireable camping spot nowadays.
The fishing? Sadly lacking yesterday. 8-(
