Spatter me please!!

That time again for a much inspired update into the likings of my personal life. Thanks to all groupies for inspiring me again. Ok seriously...have you heard the song "Truckin' Queen from OKC??" That is a very disturbing song..not even going there. So Craig gets back from Colorado and he sends me all of his pics...damn him..I wish I had been there. Its that time of year again when the mountains begin to call my name and the fishing gets cranked up. I'll probably sit around a little this weekend and get the old fly boxes back in order. I managed to (while sipping several Rainier's) lose my whole spinner box last year. To those who aren't following it a real picky fly to tie that imitates a Mayfly at its final stage of life basically spent. Kind of like when some of you float down rivers party hardy then attend a music function...still drinking mind you...and you finally hit the bed that is what spent to a mayfly feels like basically because they were just able to bump insect knees for the one time in their whole life. The life of a fly? In some cases they spend years under a rock at the bottom of a river until everything is just right. Ok where am I going with this I have no earthly idea. Spent almost a week down in Austin around the Lakeway area...I absolutely love it down there...The wedding went very well with the weather breaking right at 10:00 for a 12:00 wedding. Join me peeps in congratulating Ryan and Amanda Clark...they are currently in Cabo enjoying their honeymoon...ahh...Ok so do we have any wedding predictions to make next...hmmm...lets see..I would put money on Bryan being the next one married!!! That's right ole Cook tying the knot...settling down..starting the family...making little B's...I can see it now...one big happy family in FARM FRIENDLY WYLIE...where the city meets the Kountry!! Speaking of farming the old grapevine garden has finally taken off after several re-crops(word??)..The tomaters are a bloomin'...and it's only a matter of time I'll have to start shooting mocking birds to keep them out of there. I know what you are thinking Grapevine doesn't have near the quality of soil that Wylie has but folks you'd be surprised what you could grow in gumbo! Oh and so back to Austin...tried to go see the Reckless boys Sunday night but ol mother nature had a different plan so we decided to visit the little green bird and go home..I've lost my buddy again for several weeks to the opening of the Henry's Fork in Idaho..Bill left early Wednesday morning..well at least I will not consume as many miller lite's for a while. But it really sucks when he leaves...who else understands fishing? Tonight I think we are headed to Mikey Gilley's or whatever Gilley's to see Wade Bowen and his west of 84 tribe..Would really like to go see Bingham at Woodys but that place is like traveling to the moon and back. I'm actually curious to see if Matt Powell is still playing with Wade...Well I had better get back to working on my nun chuck skills.
