Is This a Silver Monkey Fur Coat? or Something Else?...

Recommended Posts

Chug the Mrs. and you look perfect, Comus would be proud. I seem to have a difficult time remembering Mardi Gras although I do remember being escorted back to Gulfport by shore patrol on one occasion.

My wife's costume went even further, if that's possible...

I am jealous of your Shenanigans in NOLA.  And the food!  Oregon is what happens when white people are left to their own devices.

A redemptive photo from a week or two ago... (And yes, it's muskrat, and no, not if I want to live to see another day.)

I'd say that I wouldn't be caught DEAD in that!  (But I know myself much better than that!🤪🥴

She probably wouldn't notice if you took a snip here and there off the back - LOL.

Reminds me of this humorous post a few years ago on the Classic Fly Rod Forum: 

Tying Material Identification, post #9 in the thread

I had an old friend who was a naturalist at a Minnesota nature center. A few years after he passed away, I was writing a story on that same-self nature center. The new naturalist, who had worked under Charlie was telling me about the center, when I told him I used to fish with his predecessor.

"You tie flies?" he asked.

Then he had me follow him to a large conference room with a fireplace. Near the side of the fireplace stood a huge stuffed polar bear. He walked up to the bear and gestured for me to follow. He had me peek around in back of the bear and pointed to the bear's thigh, where it looked shaved to the skin. "Charlie tied flies from this bear for 23 years," he said with a laugh. I had to laugh too.

Now, back to the scheduled topic.
