Sturm und Drang

Hey Tonya:

Fishing on the Indian River. Thunderstorms moving through the area...dead calm as we see it approach, then high winds. Right as it passes, the storm collapses and we are caught in the microburst. No rain, and 30MPH winds going straight down. The clouds above us were moving offshore, but they were also falling down, right at us.

You're making me think! I ought move out of the desert and move near the ocean somwhere for the sole opportunity of fishing off the peer once in a while.

It's beautiful here. But then, Sedona is one of my favorite spots, too.

The fishing is a bit tough in Arizona, though... ;)

As teenager I spent a lot of time on the surf and docks and peers and fished with the big poles. Frankly, I enjoyed that way more than any fresh water fishing in AZ :)

Thank you :) It was fun feeling the wind come from right above. I can see why planes get the hell out of the way.

How was your storm, yesterday? Ummm...masterful?

;-P
