Needed to get away after The Pig Party so I made plans to head North. First I had to make Jerky, wash Bad Pig and make up some Breakfast Burritos :)

We tried a local spot close to the house and I got a player on my little Dock Runner setup :) I dropped him in the weeds but he swam away to fight another day !

Thursday was more of the same, lots of driving and hiking to great spots along the creeks. Found some holes that were holding fish. We explored from Mammoth to Tioga Pass up in Lee Vining :) Even had lunch at Tom's Place again too.

Had a change of plans and came home a day early. I left at 12:30pm on Friday which I normally don't do but I figured I would be home by 7:30 that night at the latest........WRONG ! Got to the Cajon Pass at 5pm where the 15 and 395 meet and it was gridlock!!! The Freeway was shut down cause a motorcyclist got killed ??? I sat at The Pilot Truck Stop till 10:30pm >:( I could see the traffic on the 15 starting to move again so I hopped on the 15 South with every Semi Truck that was part of the mess and I got caught up in 2 more accidents on the way home :'( :'( Finally got home at 1:30am.... 13 hours of BS :o :o Oh well, still had a great time, will be going back next month but in the meantime it's time to get some blood on The Cyclops !
