Today was, for the most part, a do nothing day. I went to the nearby Bass Pro Shops store where I browsed, bought a three-day Tennessee fishing license and an update DVD for my GPS.When I got back to the coach, I fished for smallmouth bass in the river behind the coach for a little while. I didn't catch anything.
Ann went to the office and extended our stay here for a couple extra days. We won't be leaving here until Friday. The weather is supposed to turn starting tonight with possible rain tonight and thunderstorms tomorrow. We weren't planning on going anywhere tomorrow anyway.
We had dinner at Country Legends. Country Legends has singing servers who take turns going on stage and singing country songs. They were actually very good, if you like country songs. I had the BBQ pulled pork and Ann had ribs. It was a very good dinner and entertaining too.
Parking by the river, under the trees, is nice but also has it's drawbacks. In addition to water and trees, we have squirrels. Okay, no big deal, except the trees have acorns. The squirrels get up early and start running through the trees which knocks the acorns loose. About 6:30 a.m. the acorns start dropping on the roof of the coach. Nobody sleeps when that starts. When I'm up til 1:00 or 2:00 a.m. watching a west coast playoff baseball game, 6:30 comes pretty early.
Pictures are of the sign at the entrance to the RV Park and the view of the river behind our coach. Notice the Trinity Center, Ca. advertising on the name sign.

Notice, Bob, that you didn't catch anything...not even a carp...after you went into Bass Pro Shop, which is far worse than going into a Cabela's. It's all about karma, Bob. Meanwhile, little Billy (seven coaches down from yours) went into Dave's Fishin' Shack, bought four bass flies and proceeded to land 18 smallies just before supper. Four of the were bigguns, too.
Anyway, sounds like your both having a fun time.
Thanks for the comment Geoff. Just to keep you happy, I fished today for Salmon and Steelhead using my Geoff Malloway tied flies. And, just to make it sporting, I used my 5 weight fly rod and 7X tippit. No, I didn't catch anything but that may be due to the fact that there probably aren't any Salmon or Steelhead within 500 miles of here. :)
But, I did lose a fly, so I'll be in the shop to buy another one when I get back to California!
I hope you get enough rain for the Carmel River to open this year. G'luck!
Bob
I love the signs at the park and your wooden sign is AWEsome!
Love you,
