Comic Strip: When is Fishing not relaxing?...

A:  When you are the Worm.

Bobby the Worm & Dave the red-tailed Hawk   "It was this BIG......!!!"
How to talk like a fisherman, without props:  Tell your fish story and drama the size.  Yet, to Bobby, the fish was bigger then he could spread his little arms.
 The Adventures of Fuzzy & Spider      "Camping after dark"
We drove down from the lake on the gravel mountain side road in the dark.  I turned in to Spruce Run campground.  It was off season, so plenty of campsites.  Spiders' official chance to maintain the fire for light and fuzzy putting up a tent. I last put it up 22 years ago backcountry when I put in some volunteer time in the Stanislaus mountains with Terrence's CCC backcountry trail crew. 
 Willie the Wooly Sheep      "Shearing day"
Willie is our home farm watcher.  He trims himself up for the rest of the flock.  Given the chance Willie, always has and will have, his own style.

Best Handcrafted & Outdoor Road Trip Logo Art Eagle Fishing

Fishing, Hunter,Creating Sharing Art.
 
 I learned the basics of Northwest Native Totem design and illustrated this art with my heart, which is now the theme as Handcrafted & Outdoor Road trip logo out of the Great Northwest.  Painted on our rigs and printed on our Handcrafted product labels & paper newsletter is this emblem of Art and Nature as we travel.  We are taking the time to share, show, visit with, those we meet along our travels &  Enjoy as much Quality life with outdoor activities, adventures and connecting.

Angela--- Artist/Illustrator--- "This was designed in the year 1996 for Xmas cards and inspired by "Bugs" part of the City of Tualatin Operations Department, who showed me a photo of his Indian Grandpa, when I worked as Parks Maintenance worker for the City.  The egg inside was my hope of having a baby and I was working outside every day hearing stories and waiting for my chance to get back and be in the woods."

Fishing Tip:  Those who fish inspire Art from others watching.

Fishing Tip #2: Fishing is not relaxing when you are the Worm, Yet it has its moments.
