A few of you already know this, but for those who don't, here goes.

For about 20 years I've wanted to be a fly fishing guide, but I couldn't travel and be away from home while having a family. Now that my kids are grown and moved out, I decided to go for it. I attended a fly fishing guide school on the Bighorn River in Ft Smith Montana in March. For the last three weeks I've been guiding in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. I will be here until September, then will guide on the Cumberland this fall. I will probably be in Florida guiding for Tarpon this winter. I'm 49 years old so I don't know how long I can do this, but I wanted to chase a dream while there is still time.
