   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hi All</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Yesterday was a Keji Eel Weir day for me.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">And a good day it was! Its a popular fishing spot</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">at this time of year and there is always friends from yester years</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">around. Good yarns told by all!</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">While we were yarning a bunch of swallows were circling overhead.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">A couple looked like swifts but when time became available</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">to study them more closely, they were gone.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">But there was no shortage of flies for their dining pleasure.&#160;</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">If you get cranky when the black flies are out steer clear of there!</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Mayflies and Stoneflies were out in modest numbers. The Mayflies are</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">very attractive, sailing&#160; along on the water like like little sailboats. They then&#160;</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">go to a rock on the sure. Perhaps its warmer. Medium sized fellows and very dark.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">At lunch time a Humming Bird came and tended in a patch of Leatherleaf.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">A few blooms were showing. It didn&#39;t stay long but hummed of.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">A pair of Loons swam by in George Lake. They wanted to be sure they get</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">counted on Donna&#39;s Sundays Loon Count. Later they had a disagreement with</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">the resident Cormorant. They were too far away to see the cause but they made</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">the water fly. Soon the Cormorant took of by air and went down river. The Loon</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">stood on its tail and done some vigorous flapping! Perhaps a fish was the contention.</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">A pair of robins has built a nest on a tire of one of the trucks parked there. A cozy spot</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 12pt;">but will be&#160;</span>
   <span style="font-size: 16px;">inconvenient when the truck owners return from their camping trip!</span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 16px;">A great day - Enjoy the Black Fly season.</span>
  </div>
