Lots of travel on the menu for me come the 17th, I am flying out of Minneapolis headed for Detroit to visit my homie out in Toledo, Ohio. On Thanksgiving morning I am flying from Detroit to Chicago to spend the holiday with my family, and then I will be traveling back to Minneapolis.
I do plan on packing a fly rod and at least attempting to wet a line in Ohio, and in some of my old honey holes back in Illinois. I just hope the fish don't remember me, and bite my offerings.
I hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving. Eat lots of food, and get outside or enjoy some family time on the dreaded Black Friday.

KINNI CORRIDOR PROJECT
I was contacted by someone with the City of River Falls and they asked to use a few of my photographs for their webpage. They used 2 of my photographs for banners on their webpage from last winter.
Featured in the photograph below are 3 of my homies. Jim Aronson, Charlie Forbes, and John Sherlock. Jim was fishing a nice run, while Charlie and Sherlock were...I don't know. Tying on new flies? Talking about world domination? Undoing wind knots?
