In early summer on a nice day I decided to fish for steelhead on the Kalama River north of Portland.
Well, as seems my bent these days, the steelhead won.
So, I broke out the camera and took photos of colorful wildflowers and butterflies.
Next time, the steelhead better beware.

You are oh so right Spencer!
