New Shoes! 

Can't have the olde Rumbear frolicking through the Lower Owens with cold feets.  Simms Freestone wading boots seem to fit the bill. 

Rumor has it that the river running through it, Bishop California edition, is going off.  Nice mid day hatches and the pleasant sound of frolicking trout. Excuses are running low.  Time to head north for a few days.....soon, real soon.
