While dividing her time between biking the metro trails and her new passion of fly fishing, the in-between times are attending city park concerts, reading, enjoying the company of family and friends, and of course, praising God's blessings and awesome creation.OnThe Fly08http://www.blogger.com/profile/17411985497691868036noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4625627957775070793.post-18962875399761717322008-08-11T20:17:00.000-07:002008-08-12T22:38:53.980-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-AIyd2NO1cXe283qQZ0qn9ZrESBz0k00Bp7BWxtmDDM74A7bwbc_xlCGkmcl2E8a8fnZyKwd5E4Ah3ikJNGfS-B9do07hfbc4A5TZh5-dsPpnWfZ4brVkffGCOmqC5oyq-9Iglag5hNM/s1600-h/RootRiver_Peterson_Rushford080908.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-AIyd2NO1cXe283qQZ0qn9ZrESBz0k00Bp7BWxtmDDM74A7bwbc_xlCGkmcl2E8a8fnZyKwd5E4Ah3ikJNGfS-B9do07hfbc4A5TZh5-dsPpnWfZ4brVkffGCOmqC5oyq-9Iglag5hNM/s320/RootRiver_Peterson_Rushford080908.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233848063143696322" border="0" /></a><br />A novice at fly fishing, but a seasoned fisherwoman. I welcome your comments as I share my adventures of fly fishing, my new passion, in the Midwest and eventually out 'West'. A change of venue from lake to rivers/streams. It is a concentrated effort to switch from spin casting to fly casting......no wrist action.<br />...................................................An Art To Master!OnThe Fly08http://www.blogger.com/profile/17411985497691868036noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4625627957775070793.post-3599079700106033362008-08-11T20:11:00.000-07:002008-08-12T22:41:32.469-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOuO2mARQSPwweNH0nOR8sAHkR8tL07eDxSC729CG1RZSOOYx8-JUFig4nG09FwhS4Jn1bsAbq8s0nncbd9284FOTdHA1tKMu2UCyjyz8fMfWGcQgUJjto0c6TaepOOhJLlYhUUYCb02U/s1600-h/JanOnTheFarm2008_08_10+015.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOuO2mARQSPwweNH0nOR8sAHkR8tL07eDxSC729CG1RZSOOYx8-JUFig4nG09FwhS4Jn1bsAbq8s0nncbd9284FOTdHA1tKMu2UCyjyz8fMfWGcQgUJjto0c6TaepOOhJLlYhUUYCb02U/s320/JanOnTheFarm2008_08_10+015.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233847300286239634" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">This is my second summer biking the Metro Trails. My old Trek (mountain) is getting a workout the past two summers then the 16+ years that I have owned this bike. I would like to share some of my adventures taken as my miles have built up to an average of 25-35 miles a ride. The first summer the rides have been on the limestone gravel trails; and this summer they have been more road/paved trails. As I share with you, please be encouraged to ride and to pedal along the trails and don't forget to share a comment or two.</span>OnThe Fly08http://www.blogger.com/profile/17411985497691868036noreply@blogger.com1
