HOOKED!!!!!!

The assistant pro's at Coral Canyon are a couple of great golfers and just good guys. They have really helped me out alot with golf and Ron as well. Casey qualified to golf in the Nationwide Tour at Willow Creek Country Club in September. His wife is due with their first child about the same time so we will watch and see how that all plays out. Anyway, Casey has flyfished before but doesn't have a lot of time to do it - and with a new baby - this may be his last. Kash is just starting out. Ron had him over at the golf course ponds teaching him the basics and seems like he created a monster. Everytime I am over there Kash is looking for lakes to fish. He is on cloud 9 with this new sport. Well, last week they planned a trip to Panguitch Lake. They were going to leave at 4:00 am so I said that I would pass. They had a great time and Ron came back with some funny stories. He said that Kash came with a couple of gallon size baggies in case he wanted to keep one and Ron said" What? Who do you think you are fishing with?" I guess he thought he would need a much bigger bag and from the looks of the fish they caught, he was right.


Casey and Kash in the "float tubes".
Don't they look good floating around in those pretty pink lilies?


Casey's Tiger Trout!




Kash said " This is more fun than a hole in one!"

Guess Ron will be fishing a lot more - and I will be fishing less - now that he has some new fishing buddies. Maybe they will let me tag along - if they will leave at a more reasonable hour!!!

New Camera??????

Golfing with my camera!

Hawaii with my camera!



Hiking with my camera!



Biking with my camera!





Snorkeling with my camera!



I really, really, really, want one. I have been thinking about getting a new camera for a while now. I found the one that I want but I really don't know if I can justify (okay - I can justify about anything) but anyway, I really don't know if I would be silly in getting it when the one I have is perfectly fine. After all, it took a picture that made it into the Wyoming Wildlife Magazine - 1 of 45 out of almost 2600 pictures. That is pretty good! It has been with me as I almost lost my life - well - could have - climbing "Angels Landing". It had a wonderful time with me in Hawaii a couple of years ago. It has been very well mannered - easy going - other than a couple of outbursts - has not talked back much. It still looks great - no nicks or scratches! The one I want will do so much more - but will it make me truly happy? HMMMMMMM! I don't know. Besides, I will need to save for the new one - sell the old on ebay or ksl - and unless I just throw caution to the wind and drive down to Costco and just get it and hope that Ron doesn't notice the huge American Express balance - I will have some time to continue to think about it.







Leaving Missoula

Mom and Dad left for church and then we cleaned the house really well before leaving ourselves.
We wanted to get everything done so that they could come home and not have to wash sheets, towels or do any cleaning at all from our month there. I really "LOVE" those two. They are just so cute. They have been wonderful parents! Even tho I get alot of "eyerolling" in while I am there I wouldn't change a thing - except maybe - making them be less stubborn in letting anyone help them. I love this old school in Humphries. We drive by it on the trip home and I have always wanted to stop and take a picture before it is taken - or falls down.

While I was moving the pictures around on this post - I noticed that this one made mom look like she was getting into the car with us at Subway in Idaho Falls. I wish she would have been. It was so sad leaving Mom and Dad this time - even more than usual.


The "Blue Angels" were putting on a show in Idaho Falls.

"CATS" the musical

If you have not been down to see a show at the Tuacahn - you really should. These shows are fantastic! This year it is "Cats" "Crazy About You" and " Disney's Tarzan" - which has not shown anywhere else off Broadway except here. Seriously, come down and see one of these. Next year, "The Wizard of Oz", "Hairspray" and "Grease" will be playing. Can't wait. The actors have actually played on Broadway and have the most unbelievable voices. Wow!!!!

The two "wild cats"!
