Chi Wulff’s Vermont Chronicles: Rain and Fire

Joseph Pinkard changes flies on a brisk winter day.

Finally made it back to the computer after a rather packed weekend at the Somerset Fly Fishing Show. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and said hi—I was floored by the amount of you who said you read the blog and follow me here, on Chi Wulff, and assorted other sites. Loved meeting new folks and seeing old friends. Thanks so much for the support; you make this all worth it!

Despite the fact we were working the show, the Orvis crew managed to make Sunday a pretty fun birthday. It’s all about who you are with, and it’s possible to have fun doing just about anything, anywhere. Perspective is key.

We’re getting ready for a winter storm up here in the Northeast (the panic is kind of fun to watch), which gives me a few hours to catch up on business that piled up over the weekend. Shipped a print order out this morning—two 20″ x 30″ prints going to a good home in New Hampshire, and had a new publication show up with some familiar photography on the pages. It’s all fun, and the trade show was a good reminder that, despite the sometimes-maybe-often-drama, this is a pretty damn fun (and interesting) industry to be in.

The traditional Vermont Chronicles post ran on Chi Wulff this Sunday—head on over and give it a read. For you Northeast readers, pictures of ice and snow seem particularly apt.

Cheers, all. More posts coming your way in a few days.
