Not my pic

[RGINN]

Hope I don't get in trouble for stealin this but I will give credit. Taken by Joe Amon for The Denver Post, on the front page yesterday. A little too set up lookin, but still funny. Allegedly, a Texas minister, one Matthew LaGrange (oh come on, La Grange!?) on his first fly-fishin attempt on the Big Thompson near Estes Park. Even though he is from Baja Oklahoma, he is a man of God, so I will not go in to the expected diatribe y'all would expect from me on the enjoyment I would get from seein a Texan hook up with a bull elk this time of year in Colorado. Set up or not, a cool pic, and good job Joe. (The 'No Trespassing sign was a nice touch, too!)

Geez, I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of those horns Is this time of year their mating season? Is that particular animal normally aggressive?? Nice shot

Happy to keep the memory alive, olroy. I'm 1/8 Texan and I spend some time down there at least once a year (can't get decent chicken fried steak or fried okry here in the mountains) but I enjoy raggin' on y'all. I get asked so many times up here what part of Texas I'm from that I gave up on bein an Okie and just tell em I'm from down around Mobeetie. Strange, I live in the mountains, and one of the most picturesque spots in the world, but I feel more at home on the plains. Hope y'all get some rain. A real slow drizzle for a couple of days should help out a bunch.
