Over the past month, Brandon has taken up a new obsession
hobby. Allow me to explain:

It actually started back in Bethel. One of the times we went
camping, Brandon’s buddy brought a fishing pole along. We could hardly pull
Brandon out of the water, but lo and behold –

That fish started it all. He sent his catch home to friends/family in New Mexico, sure that there was plenty more where that came from. But, as luck should have it, he hasn't caught another fish since then. NOT. A. SINGLE. ONE. And trust me, he is putting in his time. For the month that we have been here in Soldotna, I can't count on my fingers and toes how many times that man has gone out fishing. Sometimes even twice a day. And it's not that he hasn't done his research either. He has talked to locals, checked fishing reports, tried different kinds of bait, sought out "hot spots," and event got lessons from Eric & papa Dodean. Still nothing.
So. If you're reading this. Please send some good fishing juju up north for him.
....and now for some moose news....
I almost hit this little guy on the highway the other morning. He was moosin' around, not paying attention. (Heh. Sympathy chuckle?)
And we carved some festive pumpkins...one of them a tribute to the moose, of course.
GOOD JUJU.....GOOD JUJU.....Sending you're way!!!!! Toby said if Brandon wants to learn to be a fisherman, he needs to tag along with the master (by that he means himself). I'm sure Brandon will get his day of catching fish out the wazoo, and you two will have trouble keeping it fresh in the fridge. Looks like everything is going well up there for you guys still. Me and Toby bought ourselves Halloween masks, and are hoping to find a party to go to this weekend for some fun and scares :) Missin you guys. PLAN ON A TANGO DATE SOMETIME WITH US!!! :)
