Father's Day Fishing- Day Three, Friday 6/19

Friday morning I woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs on the campfire grill and was ready for one of my brother's specialty breakfast burritos and a few beers. Damn that burrito just set my ass straight! I was low on ice and headed into town via back roads. Damn I love driving those dirt roads!

My brother's buddies were leaving Friday around noon so they headed up to fish Pleasant Valley Reservoir. I had been wanting to use my 4x and climb some hills, so my brother and I hopped in the truck with a few beers to see if we could get some cool shots of them from up above. We reached the mesa and they were already back at their truck headin' out. So me and my bro cruised around for a little while more and headed back to camp to see those fuckers off. I fucking love 4-wheelin'. Maybe at Blownstar I can show kerrcarto how it's done. BWAHAHAHAHA!



After they bailed it was time to hit up E Line Road and let Dad pop the cherry on his new rifle. This thing was factory sighted at 100 yds. and it was on target every shot. I'm gonna have to throw one of these on my Visa for myself and real soon! The action was smooth and I've always wanted a lever action rifle. I will own a Golden Boy one of these days.



The rim fire is cool for a while, but I like to hear a boom every once in a while so I broke out the Mini 30 and let my brother have at it. I love that rifle...



Afterwards we fished the lower Owens and got skunked. I didn't catch any fish, but I did catch a seriously major buzz. When we were driving back to camp Dad said that I was swervin' all over the road so I hopped in the extra cab and let him take the wheel. Dad was swervin' too, but I kept my mouth shut. He was having a great time and so were we! Let's leave it at that.

By the time we got back to camp it was almost completely dark. This was the last picture I took that night because I was ready to grub and I was fitshaced. When I looked at those clouds I thought I was on shrooms or something. How bad ass is that sky?

People were launching fireworks Friday night but I put my camera away because I knew I would destroy it in my destroyed state. We had burgers Friday night, played a little guitar, pounded more beers and crashed out early. It was a full day and I was sloshy...
