| |

| |

| twenty-four years ago it was really
| |
| | home??Hmmmm....Where are the statues
|
| interesting to note the changes and
| |
| | depicting our great fishing
|
| general feel to the area.It was 1981 and
| |
| | presidents--doing what they enjoyed
|
| the living was easy. Well, for us anyway.
| |
| | most?Where is Cleveland, Arthur, Hoover,
|
| I'm sure the countless homeless and
| |
| | Carter or Bush? They should be shown
|
| transient politicians weren't having such
| |
| | smiling with a big stringer of trout by
|
| an easy time, but I remember the visit as
| |
| | their side. Heck, Sonny Bono even has a
|
| a completely relaxed time.We could drive
| |
| | plaque, the least they could do is stick
|
| up to the base of the Lincoln memorial
| |
| | a red herring statue out there
|
| and "zip" up the steps and stand beneath
| |
| | somewhere.The father of our country even
|

| | made his living for a long while off of
|

| Incidently, according to that bastian of
| |
| | bronze of a freaking hippo up. How many
|
| accuracy--Wikipedia-- Abe was never into
| |
| | hippos helped relax our embattled leaders
|
| hunting and fishing- even for food. Of
| |
| | during times of great crisis in this
|
| course Encarta mentions he spent his
| |
| | great country. Monica Lewinsky should
|
| youth fishing and walking in the woods,
| |
| | have gotten a statue before that hippo
|
| so I'm not sure we really know. Maybe he
| |
| | got one!Every great cause starts

| fished alot but set 'em free?

|
| I guess that makes him one of the

|
| original "catch and release"
| |
| | be it.It is time we put a fish in

| advocates.Literally.He did have a guy
| |
| | Washington.So while you are out there
|
| named SALMON Chase as his Secretary of
| |
| | saving the whales and doing your part to
|
| the Treasury, so we can also safely say
| |
| | control global warming, rest assured that
|
| he was a supporter of SALMON!!But-once
| |
| | I will be doing my part to get the
|
| again I digress.2005 is very different in
| |
| | fishing world its long overdue proper
|
| "the district".Barricades and security
| |
| | respect.So how about it Mr. Carter--make
|
| checks everywhere, there is certainly an
| |
| | sure that if they ever choose to erect a
|
| air of tension and distrust all about. Of
| |
| | statue to you in Washington, it includes
|
| course some will say there has always
| |
| | a five weight rod and a Rainbow Trout...
|
| been an air of tension and distrust in
| |
| |
|
| DC.
