Deep in the woods, resetting my mind before things get busy 😊

Buttermilk Creek, NY

• Buttermilk Falls State Park

No fishing along the main gorge trails, but it looks like a nice creek to fish in the lower and upper areas of the state park 😊

I didn’t get a chance to fly fish, but it looks like there’s access to the Genesee River 🤔 Maybe next time😉

Darby Creek, PA

I won’t be fishing today, but I plan to get out on Wednesday and Thursday while my son is at soccer practice😊While I prefer Darby, my home creek, I’ll fish wherever I’m allowed😊

Ithan Creek, PA

Is fly fishing mindfulness, or therapeutic?
For me, it’s a mirror 🤔
Thursday, I slipped into the creek😭
Today, I stubbed my finger, tangled my line twice, and lost several flies…I’m clearly tired 😞

Darby Creek, PA

It was an extremely busy week and weekend, but I still managed to find some quiet time for fly fishing 😊

A lot of fallfish, really a lot, and one red breast sunfish🤔

#FlyFishingFriday (a day late…)

Finished a draft manuscript, submitted a proposal, and wound down a busy week with some fly fishing yesterday😉

Not a bad way to close out Friday, though it’s already Saturday 😊

Aside from a couple of geese dipping their heads in perfect synchrony 😊

#ThickTrunkTuesday is way more common than #ThickTrunkThursday anyway 🤔

Too busy lately 🙃
But I did get a little fly fishing in yesterday, and planning to do a bit more again today 🎣😊

Brandywine Creek, PA

Instead of fly fishing, I chose to spend the evening watching my son play soccer 🤔
At least I managed a short walk to check out this creek 😉

I have to go to that place 🤫 to see pink bluegills🤔

#WaterfallWednesday

Valley Creek, PA

I occasionally fish this waterfall, but not sure I have caught anything 🤔

My excuse is that every time I visit, I see some people enjoying their time by the waterfall, it’s a popular spot on a popular trail 😏

The origin 😊
It’s amazing that the water source is in the basement of a house 😮

#TacoTuesday 🌮

Lab outing 😊
It was supposed to be a lab lunch at a taco place, but we ended up having an awesome lunch at a Thai restaurant instead 😊

A thin stream, eventually leading to Chester Creek, PA

Exploring the area to prepare for my son’s spring soccer training (so I can use his practice time for some fishing), with trout season just a few weeks away 😊

Myoga 🤩😋

Just starting to sprout in the corner of the backyard, slightly off position, in the soccer goal 😊

Northbrook
- tributary of Darby Creek, PA

A little brook by Haverford Reserve Disc Golf Course 😊

Enjoyed some disc golfing in the woods instead of fishing. Nice weather for disc golfing 😊 Also, still no leaves and thick bushes, so easy to find the discs😏

This pond appears to be the source of the murky water flowing into Beaver Creek 🙃
Just in case, I made a few casts and ended up catching a couple of large pumpkinseeds 🙂
Not sure I feel like eating trout from Beaver Creek 🤔

#WellnessWednesday

East Branch Brandywine Creek, PA

Not new to this creek but still learning it 😊
Fishing opens in 10 days, so just scouting spots on an evening walk😉
With my son in a new club this season (fields nearby), this might become my go-to 🤔

It’s been too busy lately… I just realized that hyacinths and daffodils have emerged in our little front yard🌼🌱 😊

Eastern Leaf-Footed Bug
(according to my phone)

This little insect showed up at my home in Pennsylvania after hitchhiking on broccoli, probably all the way from California 🤔🥦

Not local, but with the weather turning warmer and wetter, I think this IPA is a great fit😋

I found some moss in my backyard and put a bit together 😊
Let’s see what happens 🤔

Soto means “outside.” Though brewed in Japan, it seems intended for markets outside Japan, though I may be wrong.
Many sake drinkers like to see the prefecture where the sake is brewed listed on the label. But not there, so I looked it up: it’s from Niigata, Japan. A nice sake (osake)🍶

Beaver Creek, PA

Daylight saving time, still some light left, allowing for an evening walk along the creek near the soccer field where my son practices, instead of doing grocery shopping😊
Trout were rising, but the creek is closed to fishing😉

Crum Creek, PA

Glad I got the chance to take a peaceful walk this morning before work 😊
I didn’t fish, but this creek, which is not designated as a stocked trout stream, is open for fishing year-round 😉

Italian Arum

Hard to eradicate 😞
I thought I had cleared it last year, but it has come back again 😞
