One of the many strange ones on Biltmore House in Asheville. Seems they even had a warped sense of humor in the late 1800's!

Salmon fishing is all wet!


Dsc_0264, originally uploaded by marticagle.

This big boy had just come up from plunging in after a salmon. I was really this close to him (in a enclosed, protected hut). At the top of the river bank, we were enclosed by a "fence" hat was maybe waist high. The bears were with in reach. But of course you didn't reach or you would draw back a nub...
It was an awesome trip that I want to do again!
