With summer coming nigh, fishing is on my brain. How much of it I get to do is in doubt.
Lots of projects on my plate--teaching two courses, revising courses for next fall, helping design a curriculum for a new minor in sustainability studies, and a new writing project whose nature remains vague. I want to write about literature of Ohio's Maumee valley (wherein I happen to teach). There is precious little of it, but I think it deserves some notice. That there is any would come as a shock to many people.
There is much work on the house to be done too. We're considering a move to the Toledo area next year, so we need to get this ready to sale. Given the market, we need to make this dwell nothing short of swoon-worthy.
All the same I will be scrounging out some water time. I plan a few days the week after next somewhere or other. I'll let the spirit move me in a suitable direction when the time comes. I plan to head north at least a couple times a month. And with a relatively dry spring (until now) the Huron should be fishable early this summer.
What this means is blog fodder. Daily writing is unlikely, but I will be on at least once a week. This is not of great consequence to many people but I'm feeling the need more now--this site has become a nagging itch. I hope I am inspired to continue writing, if only because writing inspires me in whatever I write about.
