Billy Burk comes up to fish with his friend and our neighbor, Jeff Rogers. We hope he comes back soon. He is a ton of fun, always a happy face. Here is a note from Billy about this photo.
Hey Merle and jack! Just a note to wish you well. Hope you are happy and content this holiday season. Sorry I didn’t make it up there this year, next year I will make a concerted effort to show up and fish circles around Jeff!
Attached is a photo of a nice Cutbow I landed Saturday on the Arkansas River, close to my home. Tight lines!..

Billy just sent me another one! I love it that it includes his son, Ryan!
note from Billy: Hey Merle, I will include one more photo with this e-mail, then I had better leave room for someone else! This is a pic. of my son Ryan, and I, at the end of a successful pheasant and quail hunt in Kansas. Our Vizsla’s, Shy and Yoshi, love it as much as we do! Those deep sea fishing photos were from my trip with the Rogers’ to Mexico in August. Thanks for a great website and blogger!!!! .Billy

Monday Night: Planets Align in a Frown
By Clara Moskowitz
The graphic is from the above web article. It is an excellent article, short and easy to read. Click on the title/link and it will open in a new window.
I am also adding a slide show of my photos in a few different exposures. Yes, we saw it in the southwest sky about 6:00 pm and it was not visible by 7:30 pm – the planets set down behind our Bitterroot Range.
To best view the slide show, click “view album”, then “slideshow.” You might need to pause the picture to be sure it loads all the way.

Well, Dr. Paul. Finally, here is a post about you! You were nice enough to send us an amazing photo from your trip to New Zealand a few years ago. Now, I am compelled to share that photo. Click on the photo for a larger view. Why don’t we have photos of you in Montana? Well, we will have to talk about that.
