STREAMS OF THOUGHT – NOTES FROM THE CHAPTER PRESIDENT<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s good to stop running around. Sometimes, one should just look at things and think about things without doing things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heat\u2014the standing in front of a blast furnace without a switch kind or maybe the so many activities or demands or things to do kind. This past month has been all of the above for me. Firstly, Trout Camp was completed successfully, although not without some sweatin\u2019 chasing excited 14 young teen campers around for 5 days. These folks pictured above are some of the many volunteers that made this year\u2019s camp a success; they are heeding tiger Hobbes\u2019 advice, just watching and not doing things\u2014a welcome break. Sweatin\u2019 also included the physical kind; my Friday at camp involved a 9 mile foray up Lynn Camp for Brookies; \u2018my camper\u2019 did good with 5 while I think my fishing shirt soaked up about 5 quarts of sweat for the day\u2014whew! The end of camp was a welcome break. A day the following week was with a friend who has discovered fly fishing and can\u2019t get enough; while he ran and did, I spent some time looking and not doing which was very enjoyable. Hopefully your summer will be a balance of doing (including fishing) things, looking at things, thinking about things, and not doing things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And while you\u2019re thinking, think about participating in some of the many volunteer activities the Little River Chapter has to offer. Firstly, our July meeting will be a picnic at River Johns on July 21st; hopefully you will be \u2018doing\u2019 that one! Richard Barnes has a lengthy list of activities that need help; think about them and then do!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
