Bringing on yet more–rhetorical redundancy
Though I will say this: These falls are amazing (or is this a singular FALL?), and I was astounded that NO ONE was down there when I was. I believe that is the first time I’ve been there without at … Continue reading →
Mr. Ron, proving he has a face made for radio, decides to wax for a moment about the morning temperaments of the McCloud River
I was going to include this in a larger post about the day in general, but I figured I’d pare it down a bit: Of course there is zero useful information in this river report. But this should in no … Continue reading →

Messing with the iPhone 6, and my fly-tying stuff
Just testing to see how well the iPhone 6 and Filmic Pro works to film a horribly-laid-out tutorial. Also, my nails look HORRIBLE.
A gratuitous re-post of my film
