Trout Fishing at Tuolumne Meadows

What I know about fishing is limited to what I learned on a pier at Atwood Lake in eastern Ohio. The sunfish and blue gills were pretty accommodating and easy to catch. Unhooking them was a little more difficult, but I’d try to hurriedly release my catch before grandpa could cook it. I drew the line at eating something I had personally caught. Someone else’s fish was fine. Just not my own. It was a matter of some principle I can not define and could never explain.

Trout fishing in Yosemite National Park is a more serious endeavor. And postcard picturesque… Tuolumne Meadows spreads out at the sub-alpine level in Yosemite’s high country.

Enclosed by the High Sierra and laced by clear bubbling streams, the meadow offers serene fishing with vistas that just might make catching a fish of secondary concern.

Cincinnati Campus

The college visit… We’ve done a few now as my oldest son progresses through his senior year of high school. This past week we visited the University of Cincinnati, an urban college with an appealing sense of community. The unusual and varied architecture alone make a walk through campus worthwhile.

The Bearcats, 6-0 this 2009 football season, play in a sunken stadium tucked into the middle of campus next to an impressive recreation facility. When athletic fields are not in use they are open to all students.

We had the added benefit of a personal tour with a freshman nephew. Being an honors student gained him a rather palatial penthouse suite rather than the usual cramped dorm room!
