I liked the pictures of the smoke. I don't only like to fish, I also like doing wildfire photography.
Well, this was an incredible trip! We had such a great time!!! Thank you so much to Parcher's and Jared for your hospitality! I wish I had your backyard, Jared...lol.
Dana & D (I know D had some help in the planning ;)), Thanks for picking Parcher's for our first Annual :confused: Sierra event!! All I can say is....WOW!
Honey, I had an amazing time! I even loved our trip home...you know how I like road trips! :D Thanks for making this a great family trip...you know the kids will never forget it, neither will I! ;)
Well, here's the story about my ripped....or shall I say, R.I.P....pants. I found these jeans in the back of our closet a couple days before our trip. I thought, cool new fishing pants.... They did have a little hole near the back pocket, but I didn't want to patch them...BIG MISTAKE!
On our second day up at Parcher's, I wore the jeans. As the day went on, the little hole was getting bigger...oops! Here's where it all went down hill...
After fishing at North Lake most of the day, we headed back up to South Lake. The day before, we fished near the launch ramp. This time we thought we'd hike in a little more. Well, we found the STEAPEST, rockiest hill to traverse down. I'm carrying the backpack and our shore bag, and about half way down the hill....smack! I landed on my behind and discovered my pants were now ripped. About 3 inches! Oh well I can still fix them later...
Get down to the water....rrriiiiiiiiiiip! Another 2 inches. Hmm... That was pretty much the rest of my day. Lean over to pick something up, rip! Walk over to one of the kids, rip! By the time we climbed back up to the car, they were ripped to my mid thigh! No joke!!!
Here's the pic....
I'm not sure if I will be able to fix them or make anything out of them....maybe a jean belt?
Anyway, that's my story about the ripped pants...by far the most I have ripped a pair of pants ever!
Looking forward to Legends....and even more to next year's trip to Parcher's!!! :D
