A good friend of mine informed me that the area around The San Juan River is a COVID-19 hot-spot right now so on June 8th I’ll be heading back to the Driftless Area for a two-week fishing/relaxing trip. It’s less than a four-hour drive to a beautiful area. Fly fisherman from Montana fish there in May and June.
Going back to The San Juan River in August
I had several trips planned for this spring and summer that I’ve canceled because the main intent of these trips was to visit friends. Can’t really do that these days. Going on a trout fishing trip is almost automatically a self-quarantine trip. Just won’t go to restaurants, fly shops, museums, etc.. I’m too old to get this virus. Damn shame cause Georgia O’Keeffe’s home, which is now a museum is about an hour and a half from my campsite. You have to make a reservation well in advance to take a tour. Maybe I’ll do that if possible.
August 20th I’ll head out to Navajo Dam NM and The San Juan River for 12 days of fishing. Better than sitting in my condo. New Mexico State Park Campgrounds are a great deal. My site has a concrete pad, concrete picnic table with an overhead, water, and electricity for $14 a night. I stayed at that same site in September of 2018.
My trailer is in the center.

Labor Day I’ll be starting an 11 day trout fishing and relaxation trip to the Driftless Area.
I won’t be updating this blog anymore. Usually I have a weak signal. At times I spend an hour or two creating and posting. Perhaps at the end of a trip I’ll post the whole trip.

Pretty sure I’ll be taking a week long trip across The Michigan Upper Peninsula and Northern Wisconsin starting this coming Sunday. Tentative plan is to spend a couple of days camped a little north of The Mackinaw Bridge, cross Mackinaw Bridge, and go to Mackinac Island. After a couple of days I’ll go west to hopefully see a very old friend in Cornucopia Wisconsin and a friend in Superior Wisconsin.

This year, I have two 10 Packs of Milwaukee Brewer tickets which gives me the right to buy 4 tickets to every home postseason game. I won’t be going anywhere until the Brewers win it all or get eliminated.
New Trailer
Today I picked up my new trailer. August 24th of 2018 I will be retired with a trailer.
