Hey there all followers of my little rants on the goings on of my life as a guide on the Green river. I hope that this winter has treated you well so far. And that with spring on it's way my thoughts and dreams turn more and more to life on the Green.

I have been pursuing a route of financial independence that has left me absolutely exhausted, and energized at the same time. I have been working a job driving a truck hauling water in the oil fields of Northeastern Utah. The work sucks, but the money is good. And because I live rent free with my folks, I have been able to pay off a lot of bills that have been plaguing me as of late. I am now almost ready, except for saving the money for a decent down payment, to buy a new car. One that will be reliable and fun to drive so that I will be able to guide effectively and in style. 

My plans for the moment are to, after purchasing a new car, to begin the 2009 guide season in the second or fourth week of April, depending on how the bookings are looking for that time. I will then proceed to guide through the month of October, where I will then go to Mexico for a nice vacation fishing for roosterfish, and a few other bluewater species for a week. Before I then head to Vernal to drive in the oilfield again for the winter.

All in all it should be a good year, with lots of fishing, and lots to learn and be gained. I can't wait. I'll see you out there.
