A successful hunt today. We got out of the woods as darkness came and the snow really picked up. But we got our tree! #christmastree #fresh #montana

Been kinda suffering the winter sads, the weather hasn't been great here, and I've been working a lot. 70+hrs this week alone.
Haven't been fishing. Haven't been going to the woods. Struggling some days to keep my head up. I'm fine, I will be fine.
I'm just tired.

I have been at training for two weeks and graduated yesterday. While I am technically still certified as LE, I am not an active officer. I do work as a 911 dispatcher now, and received my certification.
I also received an award.
I'm proud of myself.

We got some mini bricks for Christmas and I've been exhausted from a wild schedule and environment change for training. Instead of Tiktok, Facebook, and Instagram, I put together the rainbow trout. He cute. #rainbowtrout #trout

Incredible frozen web we stumbled on last weekend. Not sure if it's spider or a moth or webworm?

German Gulch a few days ago. We took a nice walk in light rain. Noticed many little fishes in the creeks. Saw some little critters and some deer. #montana #swmontana

Catch of the day. Idk what is going on. First money, now a drone? Also a roll of marker tape (in the creek?) that says "SPOT FIRE".
We're working on finding the owner.

A little creek action yesterday. Napped in our hammocks for a bit, watched some folks fish through while we rested. Didn't get as hot as they were thinking and we even got a nice rain shower. #flyfishing #montana #womenwhoflyfish #dogsky

Litigation if I need it. I don't get weekends and holidays off for my job but I do get double and triple pay, and holiday incentive. I get insurance at no cost to me. I get a comfy uniform stipend, and a 2x year payout for comp/holiday pay.
Why do you appreciate unions?
I’ll start:
Weekends off
Paid vacations
Work breaks
Sick leave
Paid holidays
No child labor
Safer working conditions
Health care and retirement benefits

It's a slow overnight.
I cleaned out both our fishing packs and the big bag. I sorted flies and added a few more to the thrashed box, to be added to the mason jar we collect them in. Soon I'll need a quart jar for all the junk flies we accumulate lol

Not much happening around here this last few weeks; I've been working a lot. Enjoy a big-ass hatchery #cutthroat trout and my little woodland creature.

Creekin today on a new blue line, westslopes like crazy on the cinnamon hopper. We had some strong, beautiful fish on the hook today and enjoyed the shady 72° respite from the 88° in town. #flyfishing #montana

Spectrum is here to install a new line into J's computer room, so he can be hardlined in for his flight sims.
So far:
They think the sim pit is pretty cool.
They're horrified about why there's nine dead end coax cables coming from our junction box.
They admire the rock cabinet.
