any interest in what is out there, or just like to look

Wife
fishing on the Snake River
It is summer in
Idaho. Last time I wrote, it was the heart of a very mild
winter. So once again I am not doing what I told my
students they must do - update regularly. Every six months
is not what I had in mind.

Me on the
Owyhee River, OR
But it is hard to
sit here at the computer when there are places to go and see
and fishing to be done. The top picture is my wife fishing
at a spot on the Snake River about 20 minutes from here. A
bit farther away, about an hour and a half, is the Owyhee
River in Oregon, home of some beautiful Brown Trout. Caught
two that day around 15 inches and lost a couple that were
much, much bigger...
I have heard from
a couple former students who expressed that they are still
using this site and hoped that I would keep it open. Still
no decision however.
I have updated the Applications, Backshelf,
Jobs , Winner and Searchin' pages except for the ads and some
sites I will add later.
I would welcome
your thoughts -
sverige72@yahoo.com
If you want to
submit a site for review, please send your request to:
sverige72@yahoo.com
Thanks to those of
you who have submitted your sites. I will eventually get to
them.
