Back to the Begining

 

     So here we are 2017, preparing to head to Brochette and the 31 mile lake.  We are going back to Quebec, from where it all started, 31 years ago.  I remember it like yesterday, we were sitting on the dock, when Banjo made the pronouncement to Ziggy, “Thirty years Ziggy, Thirty Fu?%ing years  we’ve been coming here.”, I remember at the time thinking, Holy shit, that’s incredible.  How the hell could you do something for that long?  Yet here we are.  

     The years have gone by, but still the fire burns to meet up with the crew and head up North to “Fish”. Well that’s one of the reasons, but not my main one.  It is always a great time to just be back together for one brief week, when nobody is rushing, nobody is stressed out, and we have the luxury of just kicking back and enjoying the lake and each others company.  

     We all take stock of what transpired during the course of the year, and where we are headed.  We all have the next hurdle to get over, and we seek the advice of each other to accomplish those goals.  But the best part of the trip is that for one brief week, time slows for just a bit.  Each minute lasts one second longer, and it recharges your being.  Just my feeling, but I hope you share it as well.
