Welcome to...

Wyoming Country

For those that were worried that I had gone off the grid and was finished as a blogger. Oh I'm still stumbling around in the dark waiting for the "O" 30 to take hold.

Camp Fire ~ Steel Cut ~ 1920

Oh there is a lot to be said about campfire coffee; I look for multiple opportunities to be brewing over open fire the next couple of months, paddling trips abound.

Mornings are cooler now, sunrise staggers in late as if having endured a long night out with friends; the density of the air has changed, sun's rays move south, clouds offer unique perspectives on sunsets, the rivers and lakes beckon to be explored; these our the days of the paddler, get up get out and get your paddle camp on. Coffee and Fire

Life moves pretty fast, if you don't slow down and look around, you might just miss out. - The Capt'n
