Been kind of sedentary for awhile but have a few projects going. One particular thing of interest is that the campground (River View RV and Resort) we stayed at in Vidalia, Louisiana across the river from Natchez did indeed flood with spring rains and thaws shortly after we left. You may recall we weren't really concerned while we were there but our friends, Ken and Vera, stayed there a week or so ago and half the campground was underwater! (See April 5th post)

We have also been planning and have now arranged to have a desk installed rather than have the "J Lounge" in our "living room" of the motorhome. Not sure what others think about the J Lounge, but to me its sort of useless piece of furniture. Its uncomfortable to sit and while its supposed to fold out to be used as a bed, you would have to be 3 or 4 feet tall to be comfortable. Although, it was great when the grandchildren stayed with us. At any rate we are having a desk built that will hide printers and files away and give some semblance of order in the coach. I have attached a picture below of the J Lounge that is to be replaced and will post pictures of the desk once it's installed.

Another thing that I have done over the years is to tie the flys for flyfishing that I never seem to find time for anymore. The plan is however to go north in the near future to one of our favorite spots and do a little trout fishing. In check my stocks of flys however, it is time to tie some more. Marge has allowed me to take over the dining room table for awhile to allow me room to work. Molly, my grandaughter thinks all the feathers and furs "icky" and wanted nothing to do with it.Below is just one of the nymph flys tied over the last week. I have enjoyed this hobby for quite some time and its always rewarding when you catch something on a lure that you have made.
