As my summer and fall steelhead guiding season comes to a close, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone who joined me on the Rogue River. I encourage you to spend as much time on the water as possible, and I wish you a Happy Thanksgiving. -JP

I spent a few days last week in San Diego to attend my nieces .kreider graduation at SDSU. We stayed in an awesome beach house within 50 feet of the beach. Mikenna took our group of 8 to her local bar. The place was packed, and when our group was greeted at the door, security said  "uh oh, here comes trouble." Everyone in line was asked for their ID's except us old folks. Lol. We walked in, the music was bump'n, I walked up to the bar and a young guy in his early twenties taps me on the shoulder and says, "hey man, seeing you here gives me hope that I'll be partying for a while." He then shook my hand. I wanted to ask him if he was going to buy my drink but I didn't. Instead, I realized I'm getting old and that I should have asked the bar tender for a senior drink discount.
