My good friends, Bob Burnham, Bob Townsend, Denny Freidig and I went up to the club last night around 5:00. Not to fish, but just hang out together since it\u2019s been quite a while since we all hooked up together. We kept trying to get together, but someone was always busy or out of town. Once we arrived we all lamented why we hadn\u2019t gotten together sooner. While it was a hot day with temperatures near 100 it wasn\u2019t bad in the shade, at least not with a cold beer in your hand. We spent the next two hours catching up and reminiscing our fishing trips together and planning a future trip.<\/p>\n

Around 7:00 we fired up the grill and started cooking. Steaks, portabella mushrooms and French bread were on the grill while the table was set with fine wine and salads. Food just tastes better when cooked on the river.<\/p>\n

After dinner we cleaned up and headed for the point with cigars and drinks in hand. It\u2019s amazing how time flies when you\u2019re sitting around having a great time with your fishing buddies. When the sun set behind the ridge it really cooled down to a very comfortable low 70\u2019s. The sky and river were a sight to behold. As the sun went down a sliver of the moon rose above the ridge and shined on the water below. I tried taking a pic with my Iphone, but it didn\u2019t come out. Pics just don\u2019t portray the beauty of nature, at least using a Iphone at night. It was around 11:00 when we lamented not bringing up some bedding as we could have stayed up talking for hours. We packed up and left agreeing that we need to do this again soon.<\/p>\n

The club is more than just a great place to fish. It\u2019s a place to relax in solidarity or to share with a few close friends. Also, it a great place to romance the wife. Cooking her a great dinner and sitting on the point overlooking the river is a great place to spend some quality time with your wife. As my wife say, \u201cMaking deposits in the love bank\u201d.<\/p>\n
