May 22 Returning Home

Matt and I woke up early and headed to the Pizza Place about 7:00 am. The owner invited us to come in before he usually opens, so we could have some breakfast before we head home. (Most of the places open at 8 or 9). Matt F. served us up a great breakfast and a fantastic cup of coffee.

Matt L. headed for Klamath Falls and I eased my way back to Portland over Mt. Hood.

I took this picture near the summit of Highway 26, near Government Camp.
Enough said for Oregon weather.

May 21 Fly Fishing on the Deschutes

Matt and I met in Maupin, Oregon Friday evening. Saturday we were in a class for fly fishing instruction and some fishing from 8:00 am to 7 pm. Tough duty. The class was taught by Deschutes Angler fly shop. Thanks Andrew, for all of your help on our casting and reading the water. It was great to only have 3 in the class.



We sampled food from most of the 5 restaurants in town. Great burger at Stone Bridge Pub and a terrific meatball sub at the local pizza place.


Friday, after 30 years, I made connections with an Army buddy that had moved to Maupin. We had a great visit and it was nice to reconnect. See you soon Howard and Kathy

Thanks Lee for the photo.
