The monument has thus-far stayed open to the Honor Flights, but representatives of North Country Honor Flight are still wary. Ò The Park Service had the common sense to leave them alone, but maybe when the media loses interest, the barricades will go back up,Ó said Daniel Kaifetz, Director of North Country Honor Flight.

He explained that the government is letting Honor Flights in one bus at a time, under what they are calling a freedom of speech exemption. They could cancel that exemption however, by enforcing a requirement that gatherings over a certain size re-

KEESEVILLE Ñ SaturdayÕ s scheduled Honor Flight will be going on as scheduled, despite the ongoing government shut down.

Honor Flights fly veterans from all around the country to Washington D.C., in order for them to experience the recently unveiled World War II monument. When the government instituted a partial shut-down last week, the open-air monument was ringed with barricades and closed to the public. That was until an Honor Flight from the Gulf Coast/Mississippi Chapter pushed aside the barricades, and staked a claim to their own monument. Their actions were captured on video, which immediately went viral.

50 Years of harmony celebrated in annual barbershop show

PLATTSBURGH Ñ Doing anything over 50 years is a long time. Some of us never get to do the same thing for that long. For those that are lucky enough to experience 50 years of anything is a true testament to an individualÕ s commitment. Bob Brooks is such a person. And what he does is sing, and sing, and sing!

Brooks is a member of the Cumberland Bay Barbershop Chorus, a group well known in the North Country for their singing, harmonizing, and commitment to the community. Brooks has been a member of the chorus for over 50 years, and has acquired a vast repetoire of music knowledge over the years. From old standards to rock and roll to patriotic songs, Brooks has sung them all.

On Nov. 9, Brooks, a World War II veteran and recent honor flight recipient, will share his acquired musical collection. The Cumberland Bay chorus will help Brooks relive his past 50 years of barbershopping.

Entitled Ò Jamming with Bob BrooksÓ the chorus will pay a visit to BrooksÕ living room where they will relive many tunes of the past. Sung in four part barbershop harmony, the group will bring back melodies and memories of days gone by. Songs such as Ò Georgia on my mindÓ Ò Zip a de doo dahÓ and Ò Paper moonÓ will take Brooks and the audience back to the good old days, to a time when life was simple, and more carefree.

The show will be held at Hawkins Hall on the SUNY Plattsburgh campus. The show will include the chorus, as well as other groups singing a cappella. These will include the Ò Sweet AdelinesÓ (our local female barbershop chorus); Ò Minor AdjustmentsÓ (a SUNY Plattsburgh a cappella group), and our guest quartet Ò Trade SecretsÓ (an award winning international barbershop quartet).

Starting time for the show is 7 p.m., and tickets can be obtained by calling Dave at at 593-3686 . Tickets can also be purchased online at www.Cumberlandbay.Org or may be purchased at the door. Tickets are $12 general admission, and $10 for seniors. Any group buying 10 or more tickets at a time reduces the cost to $6 a ticket.

The Cumberland Bay Barbershop Chorus will perform Nov. 9 at 7 p.m. at Hawkins Hall on the SUNY Plattsburgh campus.

SUNY Plattsburgh homecoming to be held

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ As the home of two colleges, Plattsburgh has seen its fair share of college students living, working and enjoying the area. The annual homecoming is a time in which former students are invited to come back and enjoy their alma mater campus once again. Ò ItÕ s a whole weekend of tradition, we welcome all alumni,Ó said Executive Director of Marketing & Communications Bryce Hoffman.

SUNY Plattsburgh is welcoming back alumni, family and friends for a weekend of athletics and social events during Homecoming 2013, Oct. 18 through 20.

One of this yearÕ s most anticipated events is the Tug of War over Hawkins Pond, in which teams will compete to claim the Homecoming Cup, said Joanne Nelson, director of alumni relations. Ò The tug of war is something fun for the students and the alumni to do, last year was the first year we brought it back for the alumni weekend and it started to rain a little bit, it only added to the fun I think,Ó said Karry Chapin-Lavigne, Associate of Alumni Relations at SUNY Plattsburgh.

The tug of war was a tradition primarily carried out at orienta-

tion but Chapin-Lavigne said they thought it would be a perfect addition to the alumni weekend.

The weekend will be packed with athletic celebrations, including the initiation into the Cardinal Athletic Hall of Fame, taking place at half time of the menÕ s soccer game. The soccer game begins at 1 p.m. followed by a lacrosse match against McGill College at 4 p.m.

The Tent Party at the Field House is a prelude to the many athletic events lined up for Saturday afternoon. It will open about the same time as the soccer gameÕ s start time. Ò The tent will be a fun place for people to gather and chat and if the weather isnÕ t the best it will be a good shelter,Ó ChapinLavigne said. Ò WeÕ ll have a real fall atmosphere with fall comfort foods like sausage and peppers and of course celebrating our area with Michigans.Ó Meanwhile, the Student Association will celebrate its 50th year of service at a gathering in the Algonquin Dining Hall. An open house in the School of Business and Economics and computer science building will honor this yearÕ s Off to a Good Start and Faculty Staff Impact award recipients, while showing off the new building.

A Journalism Alumni Panel Career Talk will commence Oct. 18, 9 a.m. till noon at the Cardinal Lounge in the Angell College Center. Journalism alumni discuss how they put their degrees to use and give practical advice on preparing for a career in the

field.

Chris Rosenquest, class of 2000 alumni and City of Plattsburgh Mayoral candidate will speak at 9 a.m. At 10 a.m. Josh Colligan, class of 2010 alumni and sports editor of the North Adams Transcript based in North Adams, Mass. will speak.

At 11 a.m. Sandi Fairbanks, class of 2010 alumni and a publications/graphic designer for Pittsburgh (Pa.) Technology Council will speak.

Alumni Association Board of Directors and Emeriti Board Lunch will also be held on Oct. 18, 11 a.m. to noon in the Alumni Conference Room, Angell College Center. All alumni are invited to the Alumni Association Board of Directors Annual Meeting at noon to 3 p.m. at the Alumni Conference Room, Angell College Center.

Other events will include Cardinals at the Arts: The Floating World, Japanese Prints from the Edo Period, will be on display in Plattsburgh State Art Museum, Burke Gallery, Myers Fine Arts Building from noon to 4 p.m.

The collection includes a selection of 50 woodblock prints from JapanÕ s Edo Period. The collection hails from the Lauren Rogers Museum of Art in Mississippi and offers a unique glimpse into the beauty and splendor of the floating world.

The Welcome Back Social at the Monopole will begin at 8 p.m. Ò We have a lot of things going on and we hope our alumni will come back, see the places they used to go and places they lived and really bring back memories of their times here at SUNY Plattsburgh,Ó Chapin-Lavigne said.

Government watchdogs non-existent

Shutdown not why we sent them to Washington

n 1835 Alexis de Tocqueville warned of the possibility of a democratic nation sliding subtly, almost imperceptibly into a state of dictatorship.

“The first thing that strikes the observation is an innumerable multitude of men, all equal and alike, incessantly endeavoring to procure the petty and paltry pleasures with which they glut their lives,Ó he wrote. Ò ...he exists but in himself and for himself, and if his kindred still remain to him, he may be said at any rate to have lost his country.Ó We live in a world where our democracy is under attack, and the attackers are the very men and women we continue to elect to protect our rights. It used to be the place of the news media to keep the government in check, but they have largely abdicated that role, and our freedoms are suffering for it.

With recent revelations about successive presidential administrations using the Patriot Act to spy on our day to day phone records, social media usage, even the books we check out of the library, only the slightest murmurs of protest have been heard. The Patriot Act has been re-authorized, and even strengthened, numerous times by politicians of both political stripes.

When legitimate opposition groups have come to the fore, the government has employed the IRS to make the going as difficult for them as possible.

The revelations about our governmentÕ s efforts to spy on its own people have come primarily from two people. The first, Bradley Manning, now sits in a military prison where he is serving a 35 year sentence, and the other, Edward Snowden, is in exile in Russia, likely for the rest of his life.

Senators have publicly called for the death penalty for Snowden if he is ever tried here. Neither used an American media outlet to air their information.

The response from the American press? They have been dutifully silent, content to report on the latest petty and paltry pleasures de Tocqueville warned about.

Neither of these men will be confused with John Jay or Alexander Hamilton, but for the current day and age, any voice in the wilderness will do.

From the time of the Federalist Papers, right up to the era of Watergate, the media understood and accepted its role as watchdog, digging to uncover wrongdoing by politicians from either of the ruling parties. ItÕ s now become a lapdog, happy for the occasional morsel that might fall from the table of the ruling elite. Cutting edge journalism has become who gets the newest Anthony Wiener pic out first.

Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels saw the importance of a complicit media when he wrote: Ò Think of the press as a great keyboard on which government can play.Ó While we have all been collectively distracted by the minutia of our own lives, our government has quietly but decisively learned to play the media like GoebbelsÕ great keyboard. Even the Ò opposition mediaÓ of AM talk radio serves as little more than a launching pad for the books, CDs, t-shirts and even iced tea hawked by the carnival barkers who pass for the voice of the opposition in this country.

Even on the local level, government controls access to the media with an iron grip. State workers fear for their jobs if they speak to the media. Even the stateÕ s public information specialists cannot answer freely, instead insisting questions be submitted in advance, so answers can be vetted by elected officials, when answered at all. The top DOT official in Essex County recently claimed he was targeted by the state for speaking to the media, and was forced to retire.

Many saw the internet and social media as the last great bastion for democratic thought and political dissent. While that certainly exists to some extent, with the recent revelations of government spying, how long could a political dissident survive online before coming onto the governmentÕ s radar screen?

A meaningful national shield law would be the first step to righting this listing ship, if it hasn’t in fact already capsized. There is currently a bill before the shuttered government called the Free Flow of Information Act which, if passed, would be a baby step in the direction of journalistic freedom.

Even if this law is passed, without an aggressive and inquisitive national media, the law would be all but irrelevant. National journalists currently have nothing they need to shield themselves from, except possibly the most recent Anthony Wiener pic. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board

Style & Substance: on spirituality Dear style & substance: I am feeling quite unsettled and disconnected lately and think that I need to incorporate a little spirituality in my life.

My kids could use it tooÉ the problem is that I grew up going to church but did not continue going as an adult. I feel like I made a terrible mistake in not having any connection for my kids. Aside from just picking a church and going, which I think my kids would think was very strange, how do I bring spirituality into my life and the life of my family?

A great time to connect with your family is when you sit down to eat. Setting the tone with a blessing and gratitude puts everyone in a place of presence and connection. A blessing can relieve the stress of the day and open up the possibility of meaningful conversation.

We both say Grace at our tables and have some excellent experiences to pass on; SallyÕ s family has continued with a silly blessing, holding hands, which has undoubtedly taken the edge off a hard or trying day and made way for laughs and caring. We hold hands, no matter who comes to our tableÉ and say, Ò Thank you for the world so sweet, thank you for the food we eat, thank you for the birds that sing, thank you God for everythingÓ . Often accompanied by someoneÕ s giggleÉ .and inevitably, I can physically feel the release of tension, the change in energy, and a sense of ease in which to begin the meal.

At more celebratory meals, we have taken the time to write a blessing and most recently with friends, we started the meal with a toast of thankfulness for our friends and Ò Ten Ways to Love MoreÓ , as follows: Listen without interrupting, Speak without accusing, Give without sparing, Pray without ceasing, Answer without arguing, Share without pretending, Enjoy without complaint, Trust without wavering, Forgive without punishing, Promise without forgetting.

In MicheleÕ s family, Grace is often said mid-meal. Putting dinner on the table for six people most often takes logistical planning and precision effort. However; as soon as everyone is seated, we stop and give thanks. A traditional Grace is said but always with personal thoughts and experiences from our day. This ritual has kept us together through many experiences, remaining joyful through the most difficult.

blame both parties. Those numbers alone prove how successful the politicians have been at dividing the country. With no majority opinion they are free to play their games.

Adding to the problem is a national media more concerned about their bottom lines than investigative reporting. For every strong right wing argument someone on the left has a counter argument they see as more realistic. Conversely for every left wing argument someone on the right has a counter argument they see as more realistic. Neither side is accountable to the American public as a whole and the national media are serving as enablers for a government without a true non partisan watchdog. Without an accurate independent gauge, the public gravitates to the information that affirms their beliefs right or left. That only Results in greater animosity and doubt in the motives of both sides and making the divide between the two parties even greater with every passing day.

Somehow, someway we need to return to our true core values. Earlier last week there was a news story regarding a soccer event. When the national anthem was to be sung the public address system went out. In unison over 15,000 spectators began singing the national anthem. Instinctively people knew what to do and how they felt about the country. Liberals and conservatives both love this country but instead of working to solve the minor differences we have weÕ ve allowed the media and the politicians to pit us against each other. That simple fact underscores everything about this shutdown.

When it comes to issues and politics weÕ ve lost the instinctive ability to recognize fact from fiction, to see the difference between those helping themselves at our expense and those genuinely sincere about serving their country. Day by day we are losing our way in the wilderness and neither side has put forth a leader that the country as a whole can have true faith in and get behind.

ItÕ s a sad commentary for a once proud nation, now lost in its own successes and careening further off course with every passing day.

Tile drainage conference planned

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com CHAZYÑ The Miner Institute in Chazy will be hosting a conference on the use of tile drainage in agricultural fields.

The practice of installing tile drainage in agricultural fields with poor drainage is more than 100 years old. It improves workability, crop productivity and ultimately profitability. There are drawbacks to tile drainage as well, including the possible loss of nutrients.

There are practices,however, which can lessen the negatives of tile drainage. These practices will be discussed at length at the conference, along with other aspects of tile drainage.

Speakers include Dr. Matthew Helmers from Iowa State, Larry Geohring from Cornell University, Dr. Bianca Moebius-Clune of Cornell Silently praying in the face of a driving rainstorm, dozens of abortion protestors lined up along Smithfield Blvd. in Plattsburgh during a recent protest.

Begor’s Supply: Where everybody knows your name

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com MOOERS Ñ If you want to go where everybody knows your name, the place to go is BegorÕ s Supply hardware store in Mooers.

When you walk into BegorÕ s theyÕ ll greet you by name if youÕ re a regular, and will get to know you if you’re a first time customer. It’s that personal service, and a well stocked and growing inventory, that has helped BegorÕ s grow from a small cinder-block building 24 years ago to the sprawling store and sales yard it is today. Ò We have had a lot of great local support right from the start,Ó said Norma Begor. Ò WeÕ ve met some really nice people over the years.Ó BegorÕ s was a family affair from the very beginning. Larry Begor was working as a salesman in 1989, and was on the road a lot. In his travels, he came across a family hardware store in Vermont. He and his wife Norma thought that they could possibly open something similar in a small vacant building they had next to their house. At around that same time, their son Jamy was graduating from college with a business degree, and he decided that he would make the business his career as well.

Begor’s has everything you would find at a well stocked hardware store, plus items you might not expect like space heaters, pumps, propane, lawn and garden needs, pet food,

feed, and carpet cleaners. A veritable wall of wood pellets commands the front yard in preparation for the winter heating season. In recent years they have expanded into excavating supplies such as culvert pipes, drainage and leech field pipes, and septic tanks.

DonÕ t try to carry a bag of dog food out to your car while youÕ re at BegorÕ s, because they take pride in loading your car or truck for you.

They also deliver their bigger items, like excavating supplies or wood pellets to customers up to 100 miles away.

One thing BegorÕ s likes to do is to give back to the customers who have supported them over the years. A big event on their calendar is a yearly visit from Santa before Christmas. Last year cars filled the parking lot and lined Route 11, and the line for pictures with Santa was the length of the store.

Another event is their upcoming customer appreciation day, on Oct. 19. Coffee and donuts are on the menu, and door prizes are in the offing for BegorÕ s loyal customers. Ò ItÕ s our day to give back,Ó said Jamy. Ò The people of Mooers are there for each other. Everybody knows everybody in Mooers.Ó Jamy is considering more expansion at their current location, including a drive-through pole-barn, so items can be loaded in inclement weather. But as BegorÕ s continues to grow, their dedication to personal service and quality will surely remain the same.

Heroin bust called largest ever in Clinton County PLATTSBURGH Ñ The Adirondack Drug Task Force (ADTF) on Oct. 2 arrested two men in possession of what is believed to be the largest single seizure of heroin to date in Clinton County.

ADTF arrested James D Walker, 28, of Schenectady and Jose Alicea, 27, of Scotia for the class B Felony of Possession of a Controlled Substance third degree. The arrests are a result of an investigation that began in May, 2013.

At approximately 11:15 a.m., Police stopped a 2013 Ford occupied by Alicea and Walker on Route 3 in the Town of Plattsburgh.

Upon being stopped, Alicea led officers on a brief foot chase but he was apprehended a short time later.

A search warrant was executed on the vehicle at the Plattsburgh Police Department and 600 bags of heroin, all packaged for resale, were seized with an estimated street value of $30,000.

The ADTF is comprised of members of the Plattsburgh Police Department, New York State Police, Clinton County SheriffÕ s Department, Clinton County District Attorney’s Office, US Drug Enforcement Agency, US Border Patrol and US Customs and Border Protection.

A statement released by the New York State Police and its law enforcement partners said they have seen a rise in the sale and use of heroin in the North Country during the past two years.

On July 7, the New York State Police conducted a traffic stop on North Catherine Street in Plattsburgh and subsequently arrested Justin R. Brailsford, 24, of Massena, and Jon J. Garcia, 22,

It is believed that the formula change makes inhaling or injecting the opioid drug more difficult so many users are switching to heroin which can be potentially more dangerous. Several of the area drug round ups in the North Country are showing an increasing number of people being charged with selling the highly dangerous, addictive drug. The State Police have investigated 23 fatal accidental overdoses since January 2012.

Look Good, Feel Better

Honor Flight

and looking a little better can motivate people to get going and feel better.Ó Chemotherapy very often causes a patient to lose their hair, including eyebrow and eyelash hair. It can also cause changes in the skin, including sun sensitivity, which can lead to a paling of the skin. Besides not feeling well physically, women undergoing chemotherapy often donÕ t feel good about the way they look.

Look Good, Feel Better aims to change that. Ò Cancer can really hit people at that lowest level of self-esteem. Not everyone experiences hair loss, but everyone experiences not feeling well...not themselves,Ó says LaFave.

Women taking part in the program are given a gift bag with about $200 worth of name brand makeup, donated by major makeup manufactures to the American Cancer Society. On the second Monday of the month, whoever has signed up that month meets and they are shown how to apply the makeup by cosmetologists who volunteer with the program.

The program also offers free wigs, hats and scarves, and training on how to properly fit the wigs and how best to tie the scarves. Ò It gives them a little pampering for a day, in a period of time when they could use a little pampering.Ó LaFave estimates the program helps between 24 and 30 women a year. She hopes that anyone who is undergoing cancer treatment, and did not know about the program, will contact CVPH and register.

Women wishing to take part in the program can contact the patient navigator at CVPH at 562-7100 (5010), or the American Cancer Society in Albany at 220,6963.

With several honor flights already behind them, Kaifetz discussed how moving an experience it has been for the veterans who are able to go. Of the 16.5 million people who served in the armed forces during WWII, only 1 million veterans are still alive. Ò I tell them you carry 15 of your war buddies with you.

TheyÕ re seeing it through your eyes, the 15 million who couldnÕ t go,Ó said Kaifetz. The feeling of closure that most of the Honor Flight participants are experiencing is profound, said Kaifetz. He has seen veterans talk about the war for the first time in nearly 70 years. Ò ItÕ s a life changing experience for so many people,Ó he said.

North Country Honor Flights has put together a yearbook of their first several flights which will be sold locally to raise money for future flights. They are currently looking for local businesses who would like to buy advertising in the book. Interested businesses can contact Kaifetz at 834-9901.

SaturdayÕ s Honor Flight will be leaving from the old base oval at 6:45 a.m.

Fifteen North Country WW-II veterans will be on board, including two from Vermont for the first time. Among the heroes on the flight are a Brigadier General, two D-Day veterans, and a Silver Star recipient from 101st Airborne Division.

The public is encouraged to attend the Flag Ceremony at the Old Base Parade Grounds, U.S. Oval, at 7 a.m. sharp, followed by the Sendoff Ceremony at Plattsburgh International Airport at 7:45 a.m. prior to the flight. This is the last flight of the year for North Country Honor Flight. Next spring flights will resume on May 17, 2014.

Chasing square tails

I

spent last weekend chasing tails, square tails to be exact. With the end of trout season looming on the near horizon, I wanted to take a few slab sided brookies home to put on the smoker.

As luck would have it, an old friend agreed to join in the fun, and we set off early in the morning darkness.

We had kicked off this yearÕ s trout season on the very same pond, and it treated us quite well. We probably wouldÕ ve landed quite a few more fish, if a certain member of the party of two had remembered to bring a net.

There would be no such equipment errors this time around.

Net? check. Sinking fly lines and freshly tied custom flies?

Check. Other flies, lies, lures and a few believable excuses just in case? Check!

We began the long walk in the morningÕ s darkness, as the cool air and a flowing stream of adrenaline combined to aid our pace.

We werenÕ t trying to run, but the urgency of our mission was palpable even though neither of us was willing to voice the thought.

WeÕ ve been on the trail together for over a quarter of a century, words werenÕ t necessary. We knew what to do.

The headlight beams illuminated the steam of our breathe, in the chill morning air, as we crunched along the leaf-padded track.

For John, this was to be his last hurrah chasing Adirondack brookies, and he approached it like a man on a mission.

His skill had been thoroughly tested earlier in the season, on the same pond we were now returning to.

I knew without even having to ask, what was on his mind. He had lost a true trophy back in May, and he was vengeful, but in a good way.

Despite the fact he regularly gets to play with big bruiser browns on the Delaware, where a day in the drift boat holds the promise of 10 or 12 trophy-sized fish a day; John has a true Adirondack addiction and he canÕ t seem to shake it.

Over the years we’ve fished together on ponds both large and

www.the-burgh.com

small. We’ve hiked to, biked over, paddled down, flown-in and rafted through some very interesting and productive waters.

Fortunately, we’ve also managed to catch some really nice fish.

Yet, despite the productiveness of them all, there remains just one pond in particular that has managed to cast a spell over us both.

WeÕ d been to the altar before, and we just had to return to show our respect.

When we last fished the pond, back in May of this year, I managed to land a fine, fat specimen of a speckle, with just my bare hand. Of course, I was responsible for forgetting the net.

Other anglers who witnessed our nonsense on the pond that day, were quick to offer a net when John later hooked up with another bruiser.

Three boatloads of spectators assembled to cheer him on, as the fish repeatedly stripped out his line in a series of deep dives and startling runs.

Finally, he managed to bring the big brookie to the side of the boat, and it appeared to be spent.

I urged him to bring it my way, so I could scoop it up; but he would have nothing to do with it. Ò You landed yours, now let me do it myself,Ó he scolded. Ò Get your hand under it,Ó I had coached him then, Ò And try to flop it in the boat.”

John did as he was told, and soon the big brookie was atop a pack in the middle of our canoe, and his line went limp.

He fumbled with the the rod, as he lurched toward the trout.

But it came to life, and with one powerful flap of its wide square tail, the trout launched into the air and into the water.

It was a slow-motion piscatorial performance. As I watched the speckled monster slowly return to the depths of the pondÕ s clear water, I knew JohnÕ s heart was sinking even deeper.

After having experienced the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat in less than five minutes of fishing, we decided to pack it in and pack ourselves out. We replayed the incident over and over during our return. There were plenty of I couldÕ veÕ s, and you shouldÕ veÕ s, but the big trout was back in the water, and we were on the way home.

I avoided any talk of the incident during our recent return.

We walked in quietly, and didnÕ t say much beyond the necessary Ò you grab thatÓ or Ò IÕ ll handle this.Ó The canoe slid silently into the water, and after we reached the end of the last carry, we were both equally silent. We went about the business of tying on flies and lures as the morning mist began to lift from the still waters.

No directions were necessary. We slid the canoe into the water and stepped off. If the fish were there, they’d be back in the bay,

at the far end of the pond, which was still secured by the thick morning fog.

We paddled strong but silently, and the canoe lurched forward with each stroke. In no time, we were there, drifting into the strike zone, waiting and wondering. Ò Do you think weÕ re too late?Ó I mumbled under my breath.

But before he could even respond, the answer came loud an clear.

There was a splash in the distance, and just as the sun began to peak though the trees, there came another.

Soon, there were more, muted somewhat by the sound of a fly line rifling through the still air.

Then it came, the sweet steady zzzzzz-zzzziitt of fly line pealing off the reel.

The seriousness of our business was over in an instant, as a big brookie was brought alongside the canoe and gently slipped into the net.

Quiet returned to the scene momentarily, and then the slaps continued. We were surrounded and we cast to all points of the compass.

Three, four, five fish came to the canoe in rapid succession, and the sun wasnÕ t yet over the tree line.

Amid much laughter, and the usual good hearted ribbing, John managed to land both the largest and the most trout of the day.

There was no longer any pressure to achieve, it was like a scene from a summer past, that continued to stoke dreams that such days will always last.

Twenty seven years have passed since John and I first set off on the Boquet River with a similar mission in mind.

We did it then and weÕ ve done it again. Now that itÕ s over, thereÕ s only one thing left to do, and thatÕ s to get ready for next year. Here we go again!
