There are days when I sit by my window with the weight of years settling comfortably on my shoulders, and my mind drifts back to the rivers of my youth.
Your writing is, as always, eloquent. The image of the fly fisherman holding a rod in one hand and a cellphone in the other is unfortunately all too common. There is much to appreciate about solitude and the chance to listen to the quiet while out on the water. Thank you for the engaging read!
Is it possible? Are you Norman MaClean reincarnated? That read nearly identical in his spirit! Beautiful prose, whether it is you reincarnated or not. The only thing that gave it away was the reference to smartphones!
Thank you Yvette!
Thank you for reading!
Beautifully written.
Nick, this was beautiful and timely. In the latter half of my fifth decade I echo your thoughts.
Thanks Mike - I enjoy your work!
Beautiful writing. Thank you.

Haha - Thanks for the compliment but there will never be another Norman M.
May be true but after that piece is out you in the same realm!
