August 23

Sunday, August 23 – rain, projects and salmon. Eggs and bacon for breakfast, and then an assessment of what needed to be done to get SVA back to snuff. Base of front door was rotten and porch was worse for wear. We (Stanley, Adamsons, Reed) pulled door from hinges and put on sheathing from a section of stovepipe and a new kickplate to repair existing damage and prevent future damage. All pulled porch boards up and replaced several joists, then replaced boards. Also replaced steps to porch with a functional (but not permanent) fix. Will need more spikes (big nails) to fix steps properly.
Later in the day, we all went to the mouth of Bunco and beat up on the salmon pretty well. Mix of sockeyes that were fairly red with silvers that were bright. All ate flashy, weighted salmon flies with reckless abandon. We kept 3-4 fish for dinner and ate like kings that night and all others following. We didn’t count on salmon on The Menu, but we adapted….
