This morning when Argy and I walked it was obvious that spring had arrived. The air has lost the edge it has during the colder part of winter, the days are longer 
and filled with birds singing. Brynna has been working in the office all winter keeping all of my projects moving forward quickly agreed when I suggested a canoe trip. We loaded the 20 foot Old Town Tripper and headed down to Ayer Park on Seven Tree Pond.
Yankee magazine has an article on the Maine Guide in the current issue titled “Why the Maine Guide Still Matters”. It is a good story, yes I am quoted. As proof that I have been around for a long time the featured guides are all folks that I consider friends and have known for some time now. In addition to the article Yankee has posted a video that mostly features Lance Wheaton from Forest City someone who I consider to be a great friend.
As the Executive Director of the Maine Professional Guides Association I attend a lot of meetings from legislative committees to sessions on specific natural resource topics. Of course I have opinions and frequently give them on a variety of topics.
