2001 Past Outing
Homer Martin Ranch
April 20-22, 2001
By Judy Otto
I think everyone agrees that this outing was a great success! TWFF is growing, learning, organizing, and sharing more and more with each of our outings. At least 25 women made this trip - the Homer Martin Ranch people treated our group quite well and the grounds were beautiful. Kayaking down the Llano River was a first for me and many others, and I can say it was truly a terrific experience (thanks in part to my personal "guide" Sherri Ray, who saved me from the now-famous Kayak-Eating Tree!) Quite a few stories were told Saturday evening about everyone's experience with this part of the river, and I am glad to say, everyone did eventually make it through! I think a lot of women fly-fishers really bonded that day on the river and I for one was grateful to see so much camaradarie. A few of us were totally exhausted after this outing, but after a little rest, many were ready to do it again. Our dinner on Saturday was delicious (thanks to Tracy Martin) and the after-dinner raffle was a big hit, even if I did lose! Sunday morning's business meeting was very beneficial in continuing the organization of the officers and members.
