Please quote the post or posts where anyone said anything at all about CCW carriers being gun nuts, freaks or whatever. All I saw was several people, me included, saying that's not how I roll.

Feel free. To me though, there's not enough threat out there to make the hassle, training time and expense of carrying a gun, being good with it and keeping it safe all the time to make it worth it. But honestly, to each his own, so long as nobody that doesn't need shooting gets shot.

That makes three of us.

Here is a link to an organization that deals with these issues. VERY informative. http://www.nationalrivers.org/

Thank you for the C&R ethics. Very nice fish.

Nice fish, really nice.

Where was Billy Long?

We were in Dubois. Drove up to Double Cabin and spent the day fishing there. Caught my cutthroats on a parachute adams, whiich was a first for me. I knew we were in the right place when the owner of the fly shop that stocked me up that morning showed up mid afternoon. Another day we drove up to Brooks Lake and fished the outlet. That little stream was packed with rainbows and suckers. Caught a few there too and lost a really nice rainbow. It rained hard two evenings while we were there and it blew the Wind River up so didn't get to fish it. I wanted to fish the Snake but it was way big for wading. But just right for a raft trip. It really is beautiful country. This is the alluvial field at Double Cabin. I met a man and his 70 something mother there hunting petrified wood and fossils. She was from the old town of Table Rock Missouri which is now under the lake. Looked down and found a leupold folding knife. Not one of theirs. Anyway, it's a cool place.

Wipe down with full strength bleach and then rinse. It will burn like fire for a while but then it's over.

That's a beautiful area. I was just out there too.

Nice work.

No. We're just one more species. The earth was here before we came along and will be here long after we pass.

Go to bed. lol

That's not what anyone is talking about. lol.

Justin, you are on the wrong board for this one. We're well and truly screwed for life as we know it in the long run. Who knows how it will turn out but there is no doubt it will be a lot different than it is now.

Mom is 93. She don't care.

Good thing it wasn't my mom or the verbal whoopin would have gone the other way.

So. How do you tell the difference? Before the time comes I mean.

One other option is to buy in a nice developed area with good neighbors. Which is what I did. If you are going to buy raw land and want privacy, buy a buffer too.

It's not going to be the popular position but you are correct sir. Even if Ed has a tattoo.

Is this an example or a theoretical?

Oh, now you've done it. You better watch your back. My forgetter was working pretty good but you had to go and get the rememberer going again.

I recently took a float trip on the Snake River in Wyoming. The State of Missouri could learn a lot from the State of Wyoming on how to deal with outfitters and their customers on popular rivers. Suffice to say it is not an unregulated free for all in Wyoming. Decent accesses with different areas set aside for outfitters and the general public, bathrooms at accesses and a completely different atmosphere there vs. here. Much more "professional" if that makes sense.

I clean up other people's messes for a living. I also pick up trash when I'm out on the river. One of the things that always goes in the boat with me is one of those cheapie wal-mart laundry bags. It'll hold a lot of beer cans and rinses out in nothing flat. To everyone else who has or does help keep this planet a decent place to enjoy life: Thank you.
