5 Years

Well, well, well...Time certainly flies doesn't it?  One blinks their eyes and before they know it 5 years have slipped through the cracks.  I started this blog on a whim and never really expected it to be anything short of a passing fad but here I am some 270 posts later typing number 271 with some 44K+ hits to my record .  I never really expected it to turn into what it has...a venue for creativity and a means of capturing meaningful memories of a thing I am so very passionate about.
It certainly has been nice to have a venue to share my adventures through photography and the written word.  More so, it has been even nicer to have had a journal to go back in time and re-live the adventures of past.  One can also re-live external events unrelated to fishing through the mindset experienced in the writings of that time.

A lot of things have happened over the past 5 years and I suspect many more will continue to unfold as I work my way toward another 5.  If  for nothing more than a journal of ones adventures I highly encourage anyone considering embarking on this effort to take the leap.  For me it has opened up a venue for creativity.  It has challenged my mental being and challenged my creative efforts. Subsequently, it has led me down a road that I may not have even considered possible or achievable...namely publication.

I have learned anything is achievable and never to sell ones self short.  If you are truly passionate about something and are willing to share it there are others that will enjoy and appreciate the efforts.
Looking forward to sharing future adventures and creative endeavours.  Keep checking back and offering any comments and feedback.
