I was wondering where you live too - that sounds idyllic - fishing and watching elk - my husband would be in heaven - and me too!!! Rowdy has been fishing and will be going lots more in his little life (I hope!). He's my husband's dog and my husband would be fishing everyday, if he felt better (he has some chronic health problems). Rowdy will be going fishing with my husband if he evers recovers enough to feel like going regularly. That must have been a great day for you all - I'm envious!
