The Fishing Hermit Gains a New
Knee and a New Perspective



trust me when I say weeks flat on ones back following total knee replacement gives one plenty of time to reflect on what is important in life, and relationships. First, thanks to my mom and sister for all their help. basically taking care of a baby, a big ugly one, but kinda helpless and needy none the less. 





My biggest regret was not having my wife and love of my wife with during this difficult time. For sure we have been going through a difficult stretch, but the love we have for each other is not in question. To you Julie I apologize, no excuse, but I guess I wasn't sure where we were and if you really would come, now i know how silly that was. I love you more than ever for that. But on a high note, I will see you this weekend and I'm able to get around better so it will hopefully be more fun for you.



As I reflected; how many people go through life and never find their perfect fit. And when you do you should do everything possible to not let it get away.  My wife complements me in every way!  She is the wind in my sails, the yin to my yang, and the bacon to my eggs. She is a fine IPA, old vine zin, or spicy mole!!!!,







JULIE? WILL YOU BE MY MRS FISHING HERMIT?







Things we love:

Thunderstorms


Looking for heart rocks 


Making good food together


Eating good food

Me driving, and her sleeping during a road trip


Raft trips with lots of people








Being "lost" on dirt roads








Me watching and her backing the trailer down to the river










River trips with the pooper

Full moons
