Thanks to our good friend John Bolton, both Jack and I were on the Clark Fork River with him in late September. Here is a photo log of our day. Great fish, lunch, scenery, weather and friends. A long and happy list to be thankful for.

Hi Jack. We had a wonderful time today. We learned much and saw some beautiful sights! We hope to come again soon. Thank you for your donation. It went a long way to helping some young kids get exposed to a new sport and learn honor, respect and honesty along the the way. We look forward to seeing the pictures.
Thanks again, Greg and Mindy
