   Hi All
  </div> 
  <div>
   Today we went to the Valley to talk to the Shad.
  </div> 
  <div>
   And a good day we had - it was hot but folks pay good
  </div> 
  <div>
   money for hot days in the winter.
  </div> 
  <div>
   We went to Wisharts Pool - always a good spot
  </div> 
  <div>
   and little used during the day. The water was cloudy so seeing
  </div> 
  <div>
   the number there was a bit difficult but we were able
  </div> 
  <div>
   to see some up close. Beautiful fish and very strong.
  </div> 
  <div>
   We had lunch at the Old Mill Park. Lots of trillium in flower and a scattered
  </div> 
  <div>
   mosquito but they didn&#39;t take our sandwichs off.
  </div> 
  <div>
   One interest feature on the river this year is the banks of sand that have
  </div> 
  <div>
   been deposited along the banks. Some places near 1 m in depth. Not
  </div> 
  <div>
   something I can remember seeing before. At the park an old large oak is
  </div> 
  <div>
   in the river and it has collected a sand bar in the branches. It probably blocks
  </div> 
  <div>
   off one quarter of the river, makes a nice spot to fish.
  </div> 
  <div>
   A lot of Warblers and other birds flying back and forth across the river at Wisharts.
  </div> 
  <div>
   Caddis flies, stone flies, Mayflies as well as other goodies were flying about
  </div> 
  <div>
   so food was not scarce. However fishing and id birds are too much for me at once
  </div> 
  <div>
   so I&#39;m not sure what the birds were.
  </div> 
  <div>
   A great day - enjoy the spring.
  </div>
