Wynn is about to head out for Memphis for the weekend, then he is on his way to Fontana Lake in North Carolina for some fly fishing till mid. week. Congrats to all the graduates. (I found when i graduated, that the Sony PSP is a great way to kill time while you're waiting for your name to be called.)
Everyone have a great weekend and i'll catch up on things when i get back into town. Enjoy the day. :)

Just make sure you don't go out on the lake in a riveted aluminum boat..You need one of them welded suckers! (The welded ones are for us big framed folks.)

Dude, there's a couple of streams at the other end of the park that ROCK on the trout, I might let you know about them sometime in the future, as I want some to be left when I go in the fall.

Dammit. I knew I should have flown out of Jackson. I could have tested the security measures there and reported back. Oh well, maybe next time :)
(P.S.: Have fun, wynn. It looks beautiful).

What a beautiful lake! I love the scenery in NC....the steams that run along side of the roads, the waterfalls...would love to go stay for about a month!
Have a safe trip Wynn!

Kinda slow @ times, but it was great to get out in the mountains and back in the river for a while. Kinda weird today putting on the office garb instead of my fly gear and trading my fly rod for a mouse and keyboard. *sigh*

Hey chief, glad you made it back. Any good donuts in the mountains?

Any good donuts in the mountains? Had something great up there called "mountain oyster" flavored donuts. Little chewy, but yum!

Glad you had a nice trip, Just-Wynn. I've been thinking of that beautiful lake all week. Sigh. I really need a vacation. Ever been to Watts Bar Lake in Tennessee? I went 3 years ago and am seriously thinking about going back soon.

Thanks A. Never been to Watts Bar. Looks great though. If you get a chance you should go. If you don't get a chance, you should make a chance. Life's short. :)

Its a beautiful place with great fishing. :) And the history is pretty amazing too. I bought a topo map while there and it noted locations under water of towns, homes, businesses, cemetaries and such from when they flooded the area when they built the dam. To imagine that all those little "islands" are actually mountain tops is pretty awesome.

I think JustWynn needs to take a few members fishing next time.

O.K., Wynn and I go to lunch in his car and I know for a fact it holds 5 people and has plenty of trunk space. We'll take the first 3 who sign up for the 1st annual JustWynn fly-fishing trip.

1st annual JustWynn fly-fishing trip. Called the "Just-Fin" Classic. Entry fee: $5000.00 + gas money.

I'd be willing to drive - and that would add an additional 3. :)

Loves the "women's" what? Or did you mean womens. :) ha!!

Yo, boo, Wynn got more womens in his stable than the Kentucky Derby do.

Yo, I hear Wynn loves the women's.Wynn loves the woman. Anything beyond that, i'm out for the count. Wynn can't run game like Biggie.

Don't know about weird but it would definately be depressing! Welcome back! Glad you had a safe trip!
