Olympic Peninsula in early October
Spent a rainy gray day out on the Olympic Peninsula looking for Coho and Kings, didn't find any kings, but was able to manage a few small Coho. The highlight of the day was seeing a big herd of Rosevelt Elk crossing just downriver from us.

Last of the pinks with Harold
Pink fishing at the end of the run, Anil and I took out Harold, an older man who can't walk/stand well and was dying to catch a fish. He had yet to catch a salmon, he didn't fish a lot, but when he finally hooked up he was so happy. Fun day.

Weekend Montana trip
Sol, Rick and I visited Bozeman for 2 days, managed a little bit of fishing. Although it's just sunscreen, it sure looks like sol was exploring some sexual options to us!
Ibn, Sol, Anil.... SLAYING
Crazy day on the water, tons of pinks caught, we had no food or water, we stayed out from 5am until 3pm, so you know the fishing had to be fantastic!

Lets have some Durian!
Charli and I hit a giant korean market and picked up a Durian for only 4.00. It's a large fruit from equatorial rain forests. Usually dined on by apes and elephants. It had a creamy texture, and a very odd flavor, too hard to explain. Try one sometime!
